We had heard that USR Couriers will not work. We had several of them still
around not being used and I plugged them in and they worked first try. I was
either lucky or Couriers are compatible because I did not change any of the
settings in the modems at all.
Email to FAX took a little work in the settings, but they are all happy!
This has all been running since version 3.x also.
