Package: capisuite
Version: 0.4.5-4
Severity: minor

Hi,
I am trying to update a script of mine that integrates kde and
capisuitefax. Hundreds of people download it but really too few
of them report bugs ... anyhow:

When you (in KDE kdeprintfax) select a fax number from the
address book you will most likely get somthing like
 
    +49 (69) 123456789

as your changelog says + is not accepted in a dial string (but
a faxjob starting with + is retried until the retry limit is
reached). Better: tell kde to replace the + by 00 . The number
now reads as:

    0049 69 123456789

I am quite sure that this worked when I was working at Telekom
some 25 years ago - a least internally. Using the 0049 prefix
was a trick used by the operators to get a "higher priority"
line when the network was busy.

Today Telekom rejects attempts to dial numbers starting with
0049 from inside germany. Same problem: some VOIP providers 
signal calls (CLIP) with 0049 so that you cannot call back
easily.

Here the point: did I miss some config option that allows me
to strip my country prefix? Like:

    0049 69 123456789   ->   069 123456789

Or could capaisuitefax do this?

Or should I place a hack in my script to do it?

Yours Jürgen
