Re: Reliable Fax/Phone Software

Every single one, there have been many, seems either impossible to set up or
bug ridden somewhere along the way. Many manufacturers say the modem (I have
a CL & USR) isn't compatible with the sound card or that I must not have the
correct drivers (I do), etc.

As stated earlier, "I have a feeling that these soho programs are designed
by non-professional programmers working out of their attics at night!"

I was hoping someone here would have something they were currently using
that performed as promised.
