 FaxRetries
 Get/set number of busy retries
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Syntax

    FaxRetries(<nDev>, [<nNewTries>]) -> nOldTries

 Parameters

    <nDev> is a fax device number.

    <nNewTries> is the new number of retries.

 Returns

    Old number of retries.

 Description

    FaxSend() can optionally wait and retry if it detects a busy signal when
    dialing to send a fax.  FaxRetries() sets the number of times the fax
    device will try to dial.  FaxRetryWait() sets the number of seconds it
    will wait between tries.

    The default value of FaxRetries() is 1.

    If the call fails for any reason other than a busy signal, it will not
    be retried.  (Other failures usually indicate a real problem, like a
    wrong number or broken fax machine.)  If your modem does not detect busy
    signals, calls will never be retried.  Busy signal detection is enabled
    or disabled by FaxOptions().

 Example

    FaxRetries(1, 4)        // Try four times...
    FaxRetryWait(1, 300)    // ...five minutes (300 sec.) apart.
