Thanks for the suggestion Anthony.

I went ahead and signed up for a free DID from http://www.ipcomms.net/, but am 
still unable to receive faxes sent to that DID into FaxForAsterisk.

I have tried faxing to the DID from 2 different fax machines connected to 
different POTS lines.  One fax machine is a Xerox Workcentre, and the other is 
a Brother Intellifax.  Can you provide some more information about your setup?  
If you wouldn't mind sharing your sip.conf settings, and maybe any other 
FaxForAsterisk related dialplan settings I would be greatly appreciative.  I 
feel like we must have *something* really stupid set incorrectly.  The faxes 
usually attempt to send, and appear to be properly switching to T.38, but 
usually end up failing with a "receive partial".  We are currently using the 
Digium fax driver, but have also tried it with spandsp.

I am open to any suggestions on resolving these issues.  Thanks for any help 
you might be able to give!
