Your config file has way too much unecessary stuff in it.

The ones that matter aren't quite correctly setup up either (check out
the HTML documentation that comes with the source under "Advanced
Setup" for more info). Your config file is *not* set up for Adaptive
Answer under Class 2.

*Remove*
    AdaptiveAnswer:

Make sure the following lines are in your config file:

    ModemRate:              38400       # max rate for DCE-DTE
    ModemAnswerFaxBeginCmd: "<19200><xon>"
    ModemSetupAACmd:        AT+FAA=1    # enable adaptive-answer in Class 2

Other things that really look suspect are:
    Class2RecvDataTrigger:  ""

Are you *absolutely* sure about this? Or were you just fiddling with
the values?

The HylaFAX documentation is quite complete. The only problem with it
is that there is a *LOT* (I do mean a LOT) you have to read before
you can use it effectively.
