Salve Max,

your mail motivated me to try it, too - and I have just send a fax successfuly
with efax and Nokia Cardphone, when I specify the fax-class 2 with the
option "-o 2":
efax -o 2 -t T022112345678 testfax.001

Within 2 trys I was not able to recieve a fax, my dialing was routed to my
voice-mailbox by the GSM-provider. So I would like you to join testing
- recieving fax manualy
- recieving fax automaticaly
- recieving fax from "mailbox" of the GSM-provider on demand
- finding the cheapest way to send short fax messages
- software for mobile-faxing

to write a small guide as a mini-Howto or small chapter of 
"mobile-faxing" for the  Mobile-Guide of "Mobilix.org"

Greetings,
rob


The Nokia webpage is telling about "Nokia Card Phone specifications":
"PC Fax: - Classes 1, 2, 2.0, ECM"

efax has problem with automaticaly fax-class reconnition:

quote from "man efax":
 -o opt   use  option opt to accommodate a non-standard fax
                modem protocol.  See the MODEM REQUIREMENTS  sec�
                tion below for more details.  The options are:

           0    Force  use  of Class 2.0 fax modem commands.  The
                modem must support Class 2.0.

           2    Force use of Class 2  fax  modem  commands.   The
                modem must support Class 2.

           1    Force  use  of  Class  1  fax modem commands. The
                modem must support  Class  1.   By  default  efax
                queries the modem and uses the first of the three
                above classes which is supported by the modem.
