    	Yes, I manually entered a '.', but it doesn't work.  It *is*
    	reading data on the port, because the server issues a 
    	550 Error, message too long; max 128 characters,  if I go
    	over the limit.

Oh. This is another situation. The sendpage(1) failed
because the max length of the message is reached (and the DATA
command is aborted and hfaxd(1M) isn't waiting for a "." anymore).
Just say "quit" and hfaxd(1M) will terminate this session.
Does it also ignores the "<CRLF>.<CRLF>" if you don't reach the limit?
