Ok,

I got an offline reply to this that made a request for me to try using 
4.3.1rc2. I downloaded the latest 4.3.1 BETA I could find. It built 
without problems on my Sol 9 with Sun's Workshop 11 compilers with the 
DSO turn on. This is great news.

It was also suggested that I try various speeds other than the 19200 
suggested by faxaddmodem. I tried 19200, 38400, and 57600 as speeds to 
communicate to the modem with. They all have the same effect.

Lastly, it was suggested that I check the Solaris specific serial 
settings. This really has me stumped. I am not sure of ANY specific 
settings that I have ever had to set with hylafax on Solaris. Any hints?

Also, the bottom line that I can tell thus far is this. FaxGetty tries 
to re-initialize the modem after sending a fax and times out. It sends a 
message saying that the modem may be wedged. HOWEVER, I still seem to be 
able to queue and send another fax and when I dial the fax number it 
seems to answer.

I am REALLY annoyed by the wedged emails and I do not want to just turn 
them off. I am ready and willing to do what ever debugging I can if 
someone can point me in the right direction.

Hylafax 4.3.1rc1 from 11/09/2006
SunFire V240
Solaris 9 with recent recommended patch cluster
MultiTech 5634ZBA fax modem
