Fair point. The FAX apps used to display a note about this when you
checked their parameters. That seems to have disappeared from the source
code of both rxfax and txfax. I just put it back in.

not clearly explained anywhere that I can find, and examples of
spandsp that are floating around the WiKi (among other places)
erroneously leave this option out.
In any case, I still can't send faxes... with or without the option.

Where do these weird ideas come from? :-) Why on earth would it
relate to the dial plan? What difference can you imagine the dial
plan might make?
If you want txfax to behave as the calling, rather than the
answering, side you need to specify the "caller" option. Don't
confuse caller with sender. The machine which makes a call can be
either the one sending a FAX, or one picking up a FAX by polling.
That is the reason the "caller" option exists.

My understanding is that this is only required when using it inside
a dialplan. Eg, the extension answers, then switches to fax
originator mode.
For testing, I am using txfax within a sample.call file which I drop
into /var/spool/asterisk/outgoing, as per latest docs.
Listening at the receiving fax, the tones "sound" right, although I
must confess that I don't actually speak "fax".
Does anyone have any ideas about debugging SpanDSP?

Did you remember to add the "caller" option to txfax?
