Thanks.  I had just resorted to running FaxNotify "by hand" and was astonished to see that permission
was denied?  Hmm, machines in revolt yet again.  Checked a few files and made permissions correct.

So, now, on a "failed" job I did get a PDF attachment (readable, even!) but do not get one on "re-queued" and such. I have all lines unplugged now, so I'm getting a lot of reques and a failure after 12 tries.

I guess I should be satisfied with success and not attempt to gild the lilly, as it is said.

I did see, earlier, that in setup.cache, MIMENCODE was set to mimencode, that does not exist on my system.  Could not find that binary, so changed it to uuencode.  Is that 'meaningful and correct'?
