In this thread, I don't think I've heard *anyone* say that FoIP doesn't
work.  I've heard lots of people say that fax over VoIP is fraught with
difficulties, but that they can be managed in some situations.  I've
heard people say that if want to fax over packet-switched, you probably
should be using T.38.  And I've heard people say that if you don't want
to care or think about anything, get a faxboard and good-old-POTS and be
done with it.

You're having success.  Like many others.  Your also using T.38.  Like
many others.
