Nick, I'd really like to see this RelayFax client clone work.  RelayFax has
been so much better to work with than WHFC, and I really do prefer
email-to-fax to the hylafax-ftp protocol.  I don't know Delphi, but I'd be
happy to help in testing, brainstorming, and whatever else.

As far as the format of the e-mail... it's fairly irrelevant.  You can
program the .procmailrc file to handle just about any type of e-mail format
you choose - so long as you're consistent.

There's a large number of "something2tiff" utilities out there in the open
source world which you could review to describe the details of creating a
tiff file.  Some of them have been solicited on this mailing list (and
backwards, i.e. tif2pdf).
