[hylafax-users] RelayFax Client questioins

[Tom Rymes <rymes@mac.com>]

Howdy, folks. A few questions for anyone with experience with the 
RelayFax client.

The How-To at http://www.hylafax.org/howto/clients/RelayFax.php shows 
this:

Okay. Can this be left with no password?

How do I do this? I know of MTAs like SendMail, QMail, and PostFix. Is 
this the same thing? Or is a MDA a Mil Delivery Agent, instead of Mail 
Transport Agent? Any help appreciated.

Will do once I have the rest set up. If anyone has figured this out, 
let me know!

Thank you,

Tom
