There is not simple answer to that. If you configuration ensures zero 
timing hiccups then it should work. If any timing mismatches are handled 
by the system, a fax in progress ay that moment will fail. A retry might 
get it through. It depends a lot on the rate of timing hiccups. Just 
because someone else finds it seems to work, don't assume it is either 
reliabel or repeatable elsewhere.
