Try this tiff viewer: http://www.mieweb.com/alternatiff/

This is my fexrcvd : I get only notification and the link to received
tiff and
pdf file , which are generated by faxrcvd .
If you want to see how to attach the pdf , see please my example from my
answering machine.
this script sends a wav file to me (this script is below the faxrcvd
script.

The problem for me was everytime the correct mimeencoding. 
but there is a program called mimencode, which does this job for me.

It works for me. My System:
Suse 6.4 with Hylafax as binary rpm from Suse
(hylafax-4.1beta2-93.i386.rpm)

Sorry for the long Mail.

I hope it helps 

Torsten 

... but if your ps file is incorrect, ... hmmm
