[asterisk-dev] RxFax doesn't receive anything

Hi all

I can't receive fax messages with the rxfax app. Everything seems to be
installed and configured correctly (hope so).
When it comes to receive a fax message, the rxfax app gets executed but
doesn't do anything (see CLI output below). The fax device is only
beeping, waiting for response. After 30 secs the fax device hangs up.

Any ideas?

I have asterisk 1.4.17 running with spandsp 0.0.4pre16 and
agx-ast-addons 1.4.17.5
I have also tried the Ubuntu standard packages (Ubuntu 8.04 and 8.10)
with asterisk-app-fax and got the same results.

extensions.conf:
exten => 0525111109,1,Answer()
exten => 0525111109,2,rxfax(/tmp/asterisk/bla.tif)

sip.conf:
...
allow => alaw ; alaw because I'm in europe
...

CLI output:
    -- Executing [0525111109 at sipcall:1]
Answer("SIP/41525111109-081d1cf0", "") in new stack
    -- Executing [0525111109 at sipcall:2]
RxFAX("SIP/41525111109-081d1cf0", "/tmp/asterisk/bla.tif") in new stack
(...30 secs fax beeping here...)

I can provide more information about my configuration and console
outputs if anybody needs it...
