Hi,

	the problem is that you specified base64 encoding but fax2tif output
	is not encoded.
	
	I use a little Perl script to make this conversion. I think there is
	a better way to do it, but this work.

faxrcvd:
         echo "--$MIMEBOUNDARY"
         echo "Content-Type: image/tiff; name=$FILE"
         echo "Content-Description: FAX document"
         echo "Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64"
         echo ""
         bin/base64 $FILE
         echo ""
         echo "--$MIMEBOUNDARY--"

base64 script:

#!/usr/bin/perl

use MIME::Base64 qw(encode_base64);

open(FILE, $ARGV[0]) or die "$!";
   while (read(FILE, $buf, 60*57)) {
print encode_base64($buf);
