mISDN (kernel modules and user lib) is used by chan_misdn and
chan_capi. vISDN might be another option.

There are some "Audio Quality Tuning Options" for zap channels.

chan_misdn, chan_capi (echosquelch) and vISDN include a very basic
echo cancellation or non echo cancellation. IMHO bristuff is the best
(least worse) choice. chan_modem/isdn4linux will cause additional
delay and will itensify the echo problem.


Do not use "reply" if you want to start a new thread. The header
"In-Reply-To:" is used by thread-aware mail clients even if the
subject has been changed.
