[hylafax-users] Disable the "resume" retransmit of faxes

[Jonny Berthiaume <jberthiaume@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Mr.Howard,

I didn't received an answer to my earlier question on this mailing list 
and since the ice is broken between us with the LOG EXPLAIN thread, I 
though I might directly send you a copy of it.

I use HylaFAX 4.1.5 on Linux Slackware 8.1.

Here is the situation.

I sent a fax with a total of 5 pages. While transmitting, the
transmission has been interrupted after the third page, just before
receiving the confirmation from the client for the good reception of the
third page. HylaFAX then requeue the fax as it normally would, but the
"requeued" fax is now only 3 pages. This result is rather ingenius if I
transmitted only UNIMPORTANT document.

The problem is the faxed document must have all the pages in the same
order to avoid errors by missing pages. Just think about a medical
report where you didn't notice the first two pages transmitted 10
minutes ago! Other faxes would have been printed on top of those and
they might be forgotten. This situation might lead, in extreme cases, to
death.

I need to disable this behaviour. I need to always transmit the FULL
document no matter how many pages has been successfully transmitted
before. I have made my researches, I found nothing in the man of
hylafax-config, hylafax-server, faxq, sendfax, neither on forums or
mailing list archives. How do I disable this behaviour?

Here is a small part of the first log where HylaFAX just finished to 
send the third page but did not receive the confirmation from the client 
fax machine. Thus, the fax has been requeued for later transmission.

And here is the part of the second log where the first page is sent in 
the "requeued" fax.
Nov 14 15:47:05.39: [11069]: SENT 60026 bytes of data

Nov 14 15:47:08.93: [11069]: --> [2:OK]
Nov 14 15:47:08.93: [11069]: SEND recv MCF (message confirmation)
Nov 14 15:47:08.93: [11069]: SEND FAX (00245818): FROM
XXXX@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx TO XXXXXXXXXXX (page 3 of 5 sent in 0:43)

Just to be clear, the first log is the log when the first attempt to 
send has been made. The second log is the second attempt, the "requeued" 
fax.

Thanks in advance for the help.
