    My configuration of HylaFAX does not seem to ACK the last page of a fax
    message. The last page has already been sent, so no more pages are to
    be expected. (the resulting .tif file does not seem to be received
    correctly either, at least when I try to tiff2ps the file, or fax2ps
    I get errors, which I will concentrate on next after solving this 
    problem)
    
    I tried to find some details of the facsimile protocol, to try and
    understand the log files better, but the references I found have
    removed the information since (like www.grayfax.com), or I can 
    not find them.
    
    So I have actually 2 questions:
    1) Where can I find some details about the facsimile protocol
       (just enough to 'decode' the log files.)

You may start with Andrew Margolis' "Fax Modem Sourcebook",
ISBN 0 471 95072 6. Perhaps your problem is covered ther too.

    2) How can I solve this problem.
    
    
    Below is the part from the log file with the error message.
