I have been digging around some more and found out some
faxes ended up with a REJECT status if the last attempt had
problems sending the ps document.
Example:

Nov 26 21:36:10.48: [27065]: <-- [9:AT+FRH=3\r]
Nov 26 21:36:10.50: [27065]: --> [7:CONNECT]

Nov 26 21:36:10.84: [27065]: Document was encoded with 2DMR,

and a slightly different one

Nov 26 23:03:11.92: [  425]: REMOTE best rate 14400 bit/s
Nov 26 23:03:11.92: [  425]: REMOTE max page width 1728

Nov 26 23:03:11.92: [  425]: SEND file "docq/doc27799.ps;01"
Nov 26 23:03:11.92: [  425]: High resolution document is not
supported by client, image resolution 7.71654 lines/mm
Nov 26 23:03:11.92: [  425]: <-- [9:AT+FTH=3\r]
Nov 26 23:03:11.97: [  425]: --> [7:CONNECT]

Strange is that there were successfull transmits to these
destinations (but I do not have those transcripts, only
final reports). I would guess hylafax produces a good tiff
from the ps but it doesn't look like it.

Still looking around,
