When "rejecting" based on CID, HylaFAX simply does not answer the 
call.  FaxGetty then reinitializes the modem, perhaps after some wait.  
If that initialization is successful, and if the line is still ringing, 
and if you have configured your QualifyCID to accept null or 
non-matching CIDs, then it will answer the same call that it just 
rejected.  This is a bug.

I recommend that you file this information in a bug report on 
http://bugs.hylafax.org/

The solution to this problem is not readily visible to me.  Although, 
you may want to investigate CIDNumberAnswerLength as an answering 
trigger rather than RingsBeforeAnswer.  I'm not sure if 
CIDNumberAnswerLength answering uses QualifyCID, however.
