[asterisk-users] Fax for Asterisk success rates?

[Logan Bibby]

I had the same problem for a while. I found replacing fax machines with a
scanner and either an email-to-fax program or just web-based faxing had
better results. I don't want to tell you the gateway I used because they
turned out pretty badly in the end. But there is hope!
