Patrick,

The Wiki page for mod_opal seems to suggest otherwise but does not show 
how to configure it, which is why I'm confused. Anyone else know about it?

Really has to be Hylafax, as we need desktop faxing, not via email. We 
have a large user base using WHFC and some using Excel macros to send faxes!

It looks like I may have to look at using t38modem and gatewaying t38 to 
audio towards the ISDN.
