I am trying to install mgetty+sendfax on a suse 6 linux machine with a
USR "Sporster faxmodem with x2".  When I try to send a fax the following
error terminates the job 
(excerpt from sendfax.log):

08/19 12:17:17 yS1   fax_wait_for: string '+FCI:"        801 581 6252"'

08/19 12:17:38 ##### failed transmitting f1.g3: phone="5816252",
+FHS:25, dev=ttyS1, time=43s, acct=""

I would be grateful for any help interpreting this or for a pointer to
documentation: I have read everything I have been able to find with no
luck.  Many thanks, Henry Harpending
