To answer ONLY fax ?

The code says:

          /* following the specs, we should go to +FCLASS=2;+FAA=1, but
           * there is a fair number of Rockwell modems that can't do
           * data calls if in that mode - must go to +FCLASS=0;+FAA=1 -
           * but yet other modems NEED class 2, so use modem_quirks...
           */

(that's for class2 modems)

and after the code FAA=0 is for data only, which is interesting is that
case DATA is handled by setting to 0, but also case FAX. Maybe it's 2
for fax ?

Now, there is a voice shell command I forgot to receive a fax which
is GETFAX, there is also SENDFAX. It calls libvoice/mode.c
enter_fax_mode(), and this uses

     if (voice_command("AT+FAA=0", "OK") != VMA_USER_1)
          return(FAIL);

This looks very messy, and this looks like it's bypassing the voice
library which has also a function like this, modem dependant, which is
enter_data_fax_mode() with the answer_mode bitfield parameter.

Maybe we urgently need to merge those two functions in something which
works in all the cases.

What do you think, gert ?
