Just for the archive:

I solved my problem with the typerules file.
Unfortunately sendfax splits each typerules-file
line at \t (=tab). As I took my html-recognition
lines directly from an e-mail, they didn't include
\t but spaces. Instead of spitting out an error
message, sendfax just ignored those lines. After
replacing the spaces with tabs, everything worked
fine.

To the author of hylafax:
It would be great, if sendfax printed out an error
message or if at least the typerules file contained
a hint to this problem.

I installed html2ps and used the typerule template
someone posted recently in this list. Unfortunately
even after a restart of hylafax those typerules are
ignored.

Please have a look at my current typrules file and
the output of sendfax:
