I just had an interesting idea.  I have no idea how Fax machines
work, but the one in our office sure sounds like a modem to me.
I don't know what the protocol is, but wouldn't it be great if
those things used a standard that was documented somewhere?  And
then we could write great programs so your mail UA could talk to a
fax machine somwhere instead of your typical MTA.
