You *might* be able to recover the document, *if and only if* the recording 
quality is high enough.  Easiest way to try it is to call up a fax machine  
(either an actual real one, or a copy of Hylafax)  from Asterisk and play the 
wav file down the line to it.

Hylafax might even be able to do this directly; so if you don't have a real 
fax machine, start looking there.
