Last night I generated about 600 faxes on a machine with two available

6071 124 F jpr 1203294---- 0:1 3:12 Kill time

6085 127 F jpr 1770996---- 0:0 0:12 Kill time

All of the succeeding ones show 0:12 in the seventh column.
I take it that these faxes were never even tried.
What parameter have I set that could be more generous?
Also, you probably should have used the "bulk" priority ('sendfax -P bulk')
which would have caused everything to have been attempted at least once
before trying anything again. This keeps the problematic destinations from
slowing down the entire set.
