Cannot Send Faxes

Hi!

Not sure how long I have the problem, since I really don’t send many faxes, but today I need to send one, and it does not work…

I use HylaFAX 6.0.6-8.1 from Debian repositories and IAXModem
1.2.0~dfsg-3 even from Debian repos. IAXModem is configured so:

device /dev/ttyIAX
owner uucp:uucp mode 660
port 4569
refresh 60
server pbxint.lucabert.intra peername 0049351xxxxxxx secret myverypassword cidname Familie Bertoncello cidnumber 0049351xxxxxxx codec alaw

I tried (to debug) to send me a “fax” to my mobile phone. The number will be called, but if I answer, instead of hearing the usual
“sound” of a fax, I only hear a “wait tune”.

In Asterisk I see:

Any idea what can be the problem?
