Hi, Lee,
Thanks for answering.

I am confused. I have in /var/spool/hylafax/etc the files config and 
config.ttyS0 and none contain lines with +FRS and +FTS. Which config 
files are you referring to?

If it's file class1 in subdirectory config I had the lines changed as 
per your advice but to no avail. The changes were not picked up by hylafax.

Is there a way in linux to send AT commands to the modem from a terminal 
and get the answer back on the terminal? I think I need to find out what 
that modem can do and what it can't.

I'll look at this problem after the receive problem is solved.
