I think recieved faxes are in /var/spool/hylafax/recvq as a tiff image caled faxxxxxxxxxx.tif. How you get them to your fax viewer is up to you. What I do is I email incoming faxes to an email address. I set this up in FaxDispatch which is located in /var/sppol/hylafax/etc.

Do a man faxrcvd for more information
