This is not what I'm referring to... I know what is being put by the  
remote fax !

On my Brother's fax machine (MFC-8820D) today, I've received 3 faxes:  
all of them at the top showed the caller Fax identity.
I received 2 faxes on Asterisk with spandsp, one from the same sender  
as earlier on the brother: there's nothing at the top.

I wouldn't ask if it was obvious the data was inside the image, give  
me some credits for God's sake !

Typically, when somebody is sending a fax on the Brother unit, once  
the connection has been established the identity of the fax caller is  
then displayed on the Brother's LCD (and this has nothing to do with  
PSTN CallerID), what is displayed on the LCD will be printed at the  
top of each pages. This is this behavior I'm trying to reproduce with  
Asterisk/Spandsp.
