As a replacement for the faxback plugin.

how about using hylafax+ with t38modem ? http://hylafax.sourceforge.net/

or the commercial "fork" from iFax ? http://www.ifax.com/products/hylafax/fax-over-ip.html

I am happy to report that I have (partial) success!  I used HylaFSP (commercial HylaFAX Windows client) to send a FAX to HylaFAX running on the FS machine, connecting to /dev/FS0.

The FAX wasn't received 100%, because it didn't go through the T.38 gateway, and the Caller-ID didn't get set, so that's what I'd like to fix next.

I already have this rule in the outgoing dialplan:

    <condition field="${fax_call}" expression="^true$" break="never">

      <action application="set" data="fax_enable_t38=true"/>

      <action application="set" data="execute_on_answer=t38_gateway peer"/>

    </condition>

I set the $fax_call variable (and the $outbound_caller_id_number variable) in the directory entry that's used by the ATA that the analog FAX machine uses.

What I want to do now is set the same variables on channels opened by the /dev/FS0 modem.  Where should I put these variables?
