hi all again...

I'm buying a new modem, since my Zoom keeps dropping carrier w/ IBM (:( ).

I solicited advice from you earlier, and it seems the Mhz is the way to go.
However, is it possible to _manually_ send and receive faxes with the Mhz?
I mean...say I'm talking w/ someone else and they want to send a fax. If
they hit start, then using WinFax, I can do a manual receive and get the
fax via my external modem which then automatically shuts off my phone
(plugged into the back of the modem). However, with a PCMCIA modem such
as the Mhz, there is not another jack for "phone out" where I can plug
the phone in. Comments? Anyone know how to set up your phone so it
doesn't interfere with fax transmissions?

Thanks...
