[comp.dcom.modems] Sun "faxtool" software

eli@spdcc.COM (Steve Elias) (08/31/89)

Sun has a faxtool package (software only).  it will run with an
external (serial port) fax modem.  i suppose something like JT Fax
ought to work.  (is their (Hayes') 9600 baud faxmodem shipping?)

	i just found out that the Sun product only supports a single
	type of faxmodem -- some cheapo 4800 baud unit.  not only that,
	the software is incapable of sending faxes!  it sounds like a
	complete waste of money.  buy a PC-fax card and run it in a 
	386i instead -- you'll get far more functionality...
