Re: [hylafax-users] Problems with hylafax regarding job files without number and/or gnu.hylafax class

["Ulf Zimmermann" <ulf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I did some investigation further into this after I sent this message. It
looks like gnu.hylafax has been submitting jobs in this form since
forever (one job with just document and then another job with number and
reusing the document). But only since last Monday hylafax has been
logging all these "Null or missing number".
