This shouldn't be such a problem, because I think there are
enough serious users ou there who would help to set up such
a list.

Sad to hear that STFax is not a million seller.

That's not a point, because it's obvious that one should test
STFax with a basic installation if problems arise.
But the list would give users a starting point to solve
upcoming problems, it's not meant as a
'exclusivly only working with'-list.
...snipp [your third issue of argumentation]
See above.
Have a nice weekend.
