[Volodymyr Fedorov]

Actually no, maybe I discovered it`s too late. Yes, we had Hylafax with
Avantfax and bunch of t38modems and have tonns of problems in
interoperability. So what we choose after looking
https://freeswitch.org/confluence/display/FREESWITCH/mod_spandsp especially
email2fax chapter: I wrote small pipe transport script for EXIM which
converts PDF,TIFF,DOCX,DOC to tiff suitable for TxFax.
