It would be nice if someone could do that but I doubt it will happen.
Hylafax / iaxmodem is more complicated and more effort to set up than rxfax
but the end result is worth the effort. My only criticism is that I set up
2 x E1's on a server (60 channels) and I didn't enjoy having to configure 60
entries in iax.conf, 60 tty's in etc/inittab, 60 modem entries in
var/spool/hylafax/etc, 60 entries in extensions.conf .. you get the picture.
In that respect rxfax is much much easier and faster to get going, and also
more scalable cause you can just keep calling it as many times as you need
it without having to know your max concurrent calls in advance.

Craig & Doug,
Thanks for your info. I'll do that way.
Is there any chance for implementing ecm in rcfax/spandsp? I think
using rxfax is more friendly than using a modem emulator connected
through a virtual device to a fax software. It's sound as a very
bizarre way to me. :-)
bye,
Zsolt

spandsp supports 9600 rx and does not support ecm. If you want ecm, use
iaxmodem with hylafax - http://iaxmodem.sourceforge.net , currently
hylafax
in conjunction with iaxmodem seems to be more reliable than rxfax and
spandsp by themselves.
