I had the following line in the /var/spool/hylafax/etc/config
FaxSendCmd:		/usr/sbin/faxsend
Does it have to be SendFaxCmd?
man hylafax-server says in the sending-section that it has to be 
FaxSendCmd in the faxq configureation file, which should be the one i used.
But after your mail i checked man hylafax-config which says
it should be SendFaxCmd ???
I tried the latter, but it did not work either.
