The observation seems right... since it sounds like it's happening after
a page has been sent.  But,...

I've tried this and combinations of quirks: 0x20, 0x4, and 0x8 in
sendmail.conf and still get the same behavior: these two fax/modems
won't communicate.  The receiver is said to be: "working fine ... I get
faxes all day".

Sorry, I was not sure what might be pertinent.

The JOB logs have the error:

22.04.99 16:18 -> Error transmitting or polling page(s) failed (Status
12)

but I don't know if that's relevant either.  My modem is a USRobotics
Courier V.Everything.
