First off, as requested when you joined the list 
(http://www.hylafax.org/mailing-lists.php)

"when corresponding about this software please always specify:

   * what version you have (check here
     <http://www.hylafax.org/version.php> if you are unsure of your
     software version),
   * what system you're running on, (if Linux then please include the
     distribution) and,
   * if the problem is modem-related, identify the modem and the
     firmware revision."




Anyway, if you are on Hylafax 4.2.0, it is probably the base64 issue.  
See the list archives from November 16, 2004:

http://www.hylafax.org/archive/2004-11/msg00283.php

I think I've also noticed that if you run faxsetup after upgrading from 
4.1.8 to 4.2.0 (as you're supposed to) I think it re-writes the 
ENCODING=base64 line in setup.cache.  So if I'm not mistaken, this is 
not strictly a bug, it could be called "user error".

Cheers.
