  This is new to me, I have a fax server using Receive Fax and gets way over 5 
calls at a time.   [fax-in]   exten => s,1,Answer() exten => s,n,Wait(1) exten

   Hi all,        I realize that the application Receivefax can't handle with 
more than one fax at the same time. In a environment  with a lot of fax, some 
caller get the signal but the operation can't be completed.    Is  there a way 
to send busy tone to the second caller?

Att,

Skype: flaviormiranda   My guess is no.  A possible "work-around" would be to 
set a global variable to indicate that the line is busy and to play a message 
and hang-up immediately or to just hangup.  Something like this: -       exten 
=> s,1,answer -       exten => s,n,AGI(checkstat.agi) - reset variable if 
receivefax died or hungup -       exten => s,n,Gotoif($[ "${FAXINUSE}" = 
"YES"]?byebye) -       exten => s,n,Set(GLOBAL(FAXINUSE)=YES) -       exten => 
s,n,receivefax -       exten => s,n,Set(GLOBAL(FAXINUSE)=NO) -       exten => 
s,n,hangup -       exten => s,n(byebye),playback(im-busy) -       exten => 
s,n,hangup
Why can't receivefax handle more then 5 faxes at the same time?  Are you using 
the res_fax_spandsp.so or the res_fax_digium.so modules?  It was my 
understanding that the res_fax_spandsp.so did not have a limit and the 
res_fax_digium.so was the commercial offering that is based on a per channel 
license.

Am I wrong on the res_fax_spandsp.so module is there a limit other than 
hardware performance?
