The program communicates with device /dev/cuaa0 or cuaa1 ( as I remember it's name) sends commands and handles modem output itself. However, to dial an ISP you need a PPP running. Do you mean you need help to configure PPP ? PS. How do I send replies to messages in maillist, where I can write correspondent's name ?
