    I am currently using t38modem on a SIP trunk with about 20 or so modems/channels (whatever you want to call them). Each channel is not dedicated for a number and I use DNIS numbers or bar codes for FAX inbound routing. ANYWAY, would it be possible to modify the caller ID on each outbound call placed?

    Hope this made since on what I am trying to do.

    In fact, i was searchning for same thing and also opened new thread for it.
    Just few minutes later i found the answer myself, while digging through some other threads.
    Outgoing caller ID can be set for each outbound call using L modifier in ATD command.
    I'v just tested that on my Hylafax install by putting that number directly into ATD command in modem config.
    The line in config looks like this:

    ModemDialCmd:           ATDL<number>T%s
    

    This of course is static, but Hylafax is immensely flexible, so we can use jobcontrol script to alter dial command for each ougoing Job.
    I remember about some placeholder that can be put into dial command string tu put in outgoing number (think it was %o or something), but i'm not using that aproach, because i have to use jobcontrol script anyway.
