Yes.

Smile, be happy, and be grateful that you don't have any problems.

Perhaps. Part of the aim on the HylaFAX+ website was to condense the 
vast amount of information that there is into something manageable (both 
for the maintainer as also for the user). Sometimes more information 
only confuses. So the HylaFAX+ website leans heavily on the man pages 
and then on the HOWTO which is to serve as a more step-by-step 
installation and setup guide... filling in all of the questions that 
come up.

Actually, I recommend HylaFAX+. Others here obviously will disagree with 
me on it for various, often trivial reasons, but there is a reason why 
IAXmodem and HylaFAX+ have always worked well together.

Stick with HylaFAX+ and follow the HylaFAX+ upgrades at your leisure.

IAXmodem should work with both the hylafax.org and the HylaFAX+ code. 
That said, I *only* test on HylaFAX+.

As to your confusion that you mention in the subject, I do regret it. I 
try ever so carefully to make the HylaFAX+ vs. hylafax.org distinction 
clear on the HylaFAX+ website.

Thanks,

Lee.
