[hylafax-users] MaxRecvPages somewhat unexpected behaviour - bug ?



Had to send 116 pages; knew that the setting of MaxRecvPages: was 100.

So I put some stacks of originals onto the Xerox (transmitter): 30, 30, 28 and 28.

Somewhat unexpectedly, the reception was in four batches of 30,30,28 and *12*.
One can argue that these make exactly 100, so yahoo!, but I'd argue that MaxRecvPages is supposed to be per fax; not per remote number (or whatever happened here).


The log of the last batch looks messed up: For batches 1-3 the log looks like

recvq/fax00783.tif (ftp://server.mydomain.com:4559/recvq/fax00783.tif):

Sender: 0389261668
Pages: 30
Quality: Normal
Page: ISO A4
Received: 2004:05:31 17:47:56
TimeToRecv: 22:23
SignalRate: 14400 bit/s
DataFormat: 2-D MR
ReceivedOn: tty02
CommID: c00001024


whereas the last batch has a log like:

recvq/fax00786.tif (ftp://server.mydomain.com:4559/recvq/fax00786.tif):

   Sender: 0389261668
    Pages: 12
  Quality: Normal
     Page: ISO A4
 Received: 2004:05:31 18:51:28
TimeToRecv: 7:22
SignalRate: 14400 bit/s

The full document was not received because:

Maximum receive page count exceeded, job terminated

The last log suddenly contains *all the previous events* ! This of course will explain the unexpected end. Please check the timestamps ! The log for the last batch starts 17:47 and finishes 18:58 and contains all faxes sent earlier.
In its header, however, it identifies correctly


TimeToRecv: 7:22

, the correct time it needed to receive the 12 faxes. These 12 are also converted and dispatched properly.

My questions:

1. Must we perceive this to be a bug ?
2. Am I correct, the MaxRecvPages are per individual session ?

Thanks in advance !
