Default "The line is busy" for some numbers

Hi,

My fax service (winxp, sp2) works selectively, for most numbers it does
work, but for some, not. When a phone number fails, it's a complete failure.

It never works. The response I keep getting is "The line is busy". I dialed
manually to the failed numbers, and they seem to be perfect.

I ran a search for this problem on the net, and found that such failures
happen, since the xp fax service is incompatible with some, unspecified, fax
machines.

Is this true? Is there a way to solve this problem?

Ran

p.s. I've installed an alternative fax program, but the problem stayed.

Looks like replace the program isn't going to solve my problem.
