I have this software which comes with Zoom sendfax only modem. My friend
has a DoveFax send/receive modem. One day he told me to send a fax to
his modem to test his modem. I used Quick Link II Fax and I had no way
to send a fax to him. The connection always broke in the middle of
transmission. I do not know the reason why. I seldom use the program
at all even as a terminal emulator. This sendfax feature of this software
can only send text and pict documents. I once sent a text file to a
fax machine to look at the output. The output did not look very good.
All the characters are very small and there is no way to format the output.

I phoned the company and asked them if they have the latest one. Mine is
1.0.2. They said they had a latest one and charged for thirty something
to upgrade. Since I do not really like the software, I told them to send
me a catalog first. But I never receive such a catalog.

I hope there is some other software around which can drive my modem to 
work. I think it is possible. If someone has an answer, please post 
the result. I would like to see what other options would be.
