This is good.  It tells us that the problem occurrs in the job 
preparation routines.  It's due to some fxStr operation referencing an 
index beyond the length of the fxStr value (like string[5] when the 
string.length() = 2.

So the error occurs within faxQueueApp::prepareJob(), but that's as 
close as I can get without being able to reproduce the problem myself.  
I've attached all of the changes (a diff file) in faxd/faxQueueApp.c++ 
from 4.1.5 to 4.1.7.  It's not a lot.  It mostly amounts to changes in 
Bugs 267, 223, 383, and 396.  Except for the MMR stuff Aidan did most 
of that work, so he'd be the most knowledgeable about these changes.  I 
can help with any issue on the MMR work, although the MMR-related 
changes don't affect fxStr indexes, so I don't think the matter's there.

If I were to venture a guess, I'd try backing out the patch(es) on Bug 
267 from your 4.1.7 source and see if that doesn't resolve the matter.

In order for me to help you further I would need to have the associated 
sendq file (in this case "sendq/q5") before it actually sends and also 
all associated docq files.
