I'm getting a 24/7 link very soon.  I should be able to assist you with
this.  Now where is that 14k4 modem? :)

Due to my current work schedule (non shift work for the next 2 months)
we'll prob need to do this during an evening/night Brisbane time.

Email me privately and we can arrange the specifics.

BTW, I think the fax servers all went the way of the Dodo a while ago.  I
used to use them, and then one day they just stopped working without
warning (they had got too popular and were costing real moey to run).
Cheers,
