Did you try without "-f"? sendfax should recognize the tiff-file 
automaticly.

some basic questions:

- is c2faxrecv running? (a must with hylafax)
- can you tell more explicitly what is going wrong after "sendfax ..."
 e.g. does the job get sent and fails, it never gets sent ...
- anything in the system log ?
- did you use the faxCAPI-file or told faxsetup to use /dev/faxCAPI?

The communication runs via the q-file.
