At last, I want to get my Mom's UUCP connection going, and all I've got
currently is a Dove fax/modem.  This was supposedly purchased new, but

	no printed docs came with it

	the original floppy is unreadable now

	I lost the email address of a guy who may
	have been able to help me

All in all, pretty rotten luck, eh? :-)

So, please help end this tale of woe, and send me the magic I need to
put in my dialer script to make the fax modem be a data modem...and if
necessary, switch back to fax-ness when data connections are closed.

I'll go snoop the archives and try to locate NewsGrazer and a 'better'
version of UUCP (any strong recommendations?  I know that NeXT's
standard stuff is really old).  Any other tips about the Dove fax (or
any other generic fax driver and/or uucp hints) will be warmly and
enthusiastically appreciated!  Thanks very much!

Hoping to be able to say "NeXTmail welcome!" very soon,
