Sure. But the question is: should AA be enabled with the *default* setting
or not? If yes (although I don't like it) we should do it uniform
way. i.e. for *all* modem templates supplied, where it is possible (all
Class2/Class2.0 modems).

Understand me right: I have nothing against auto-answer feature in general
(although it makes connect longer and sometimes do not work reliably --
useless waste of time in the fax-only environment). But the purpose of
modem templates IMHO is working aroung specific modem quirks and nothing
else. So all non modem-specific defaults should comply to
config(5f). Regarding ModemSetupAACmd is says that auto-answer is disabled
by default.

Hope to hear from you soon,
Dmitry
