I'm explaining this poorly.
I want to create an outgoing dahdi channel and send a fax. I'm not
sending the fax to an incoming call. So I have to tell SendFax() where
to go.
I've used ReceiveFax() on incoming sip and dahdi channels. That works.
For sending a fax, I thought you would create an outgoing dahdi channnel
(which is what Dial() is for, right?) and then execute SendFax() in that
channel (somehow).
Isn't this a common use case?
