No. No. This can't be right. We've been hearing authoritative statements 
on this mailing list that soft modems can't possibly work. :-)

I have no clear idea how many people actually use my software for fairly 
high volumes. There are now clearly many thousands successfully using it 
for modest levels of faxing. I have heard from a few people doing rather 
higher volumes than you. Other people have problem - I mean genuine 
problems, rather than the frame slips issues. I don't get enough 
feedback to really work out what it going on with those troublesome 
installations.
