The topic of "how to archive or get notify to return coverpages" is 
available in full discussion in the mailing list archives.  Don't 
expect me to look it up and post you links or to reiterate in full what 
was already mentioned there when I don't have that kind of time.

You didn't specify *how* you delivered faxes to hfaxd, so all that I 
could do was give you a general direction.

You didn't specify that you used WHFC, before, so now I can give you 
more specific guidance.

In the hfaxd client-server communications the client specifies the 
"type" of file it uploads to the server: whether it is a "document" or 
whether it is a "coverpage".

HylaFAX server assumes that coverpages are not worthy of archival and 
thus deletes them once they are confirmed received by the receiver.  
Thus, if you want the coverpage to hang around long enough for them to 
be archived (or returned by notify via e-mail) you'll need to specify 
that the coverpage is a "document" instead of a "coverpage" in the 
hfaxd client-server communication.

How you're going to get WHFC to do that, I don't know.  Perhaps WHFC 
has a checkbox somewhere to do it?  I'm fairly sure that Pyla does, 
though.
