Summary:                    app_fax doesn't receive fax with T.38
Description: 
When I try to receive a fax from a provider that supports T.38 using
ReceiveFAX() provided by app_fax.so, the fax transmission ends prematurely
with an error.

What happens (according to Kevin Fleming) is this:

"In this call, Asterisk sent a re-INVITE to T.38 mode
from audio mode, the provider accepted it, and then Asterisk
acknowledged it. Immediately afterwards, Asterisk sent a re-INVITE
*back* to audio mode, which the provider accepted (and included T.38
capabilities in their response). Because of this, the FAX reception
process failed since the T.38 session was destroyed."

I'm out of ideas. I usually get a 9600+ over a SIP trunk coming from a
regular fax machine on a standard analog line. I have gotten 14.4 from a
local fax machine attached to an SPA-2101. What kind of hardware are you
running? I wonder if you will get better results on a machine that supports
HPET using internal_timing...
