What is MaxDials etc to in $SPOOL/etc/config?
See the hylafax-config man pages for it's default value.
The job(user) can specify a maxdials/maxtries, but they are "capped" by
the settings of faxq. If you really don't want faxq to cap settings,
set them to -1 in the faxq config. Then clients can set them to
whatever they want, and they don't get capped by faxq (well, capped by
the size of an u_int on whatever platform you're on).
