Um, ok.  So it works now.  Redirect message is there, and the fax 
answers.  I didn't even try the second card, but I did try the "d" 
option to Dial (still looking for this documentation.).....and now 2 
minutes later I just tried without "d" and, as I expected, it still 
works without it.  What actually changed to make this work, I couldn't 
tell ya.  Maybe it was that static spark between me and the shelving 
where the server sits. :)

Thanks anyway,
Bob
