Thanks Steve, and please don't think I am criticising you or anyone else. Everyone who is working on Asterisk and related products are pure legends as far as I'm concerned... I wish I could help in some way (I'm not a programmer's backside!).

Fair point. The FAX apps used to display a note about this when you checked their parameters. That seems to have disappeared from the source code of both rxfax and txfax. I just put it back in.

In any case, I still can't send faxes... with or without the option.

Where do these weird ideas come from? :-) Why on earth would it relate to the dial plan? What difference can you imagine the dial plan might make?

If you want txfax to behave as the calling, rather than the answering, side you need to specify the "caller" option. Don't confuse caller with sender. The machine which makes a call can be either the one sending a FAX, or one picking up a FAX by polling. That is the reason the "caller" option exists.

Regards,
Steve

My understanding is that this is only required when using it inside a dialplan. Eg, the extension answers, then switches to fax originator mode.

For testing, I am using txfax within a sample.call file which I drop into /var/spool/asterisk/outgoing, as per latest docs.

Listening at the receiving fax, the tones "sound" right, although I must confess that I don't actually speak "fax".

Does anyone have any ideas about debugging SpanDSP?

Did you remember to add the "caller" option to txfax?
