Are you sure.  When sendmail 8.8.8 runs uux, it runs it as the actual
user, if the envelope address resolves to a user mailbox on the sendmail
machine, and daemon if it can't resolve the address.  Unless some option
is set to avoid this, or the facility has disappeared in 8.9.1, I would
expect the same for hylafax.
