On some of my installations in FaxDispatch I use tiffsplit to split up 
the fax into individual pages and then tiffcp to rejoin them and ensure 
that in whatever the next step is that the TIFF file is entirely useable.

-----------------------------------
# clean up the TIFF from unintelligible pages
TMPDIR=tmp/FaxDispatch$$
mkdir $TMPDIR
cd $TMPDIR
tiffsplit ../../$FILE
tiffcp * ../../$FILE
cd ../..
rm -rf $TMPDIR
-----------------------------------

I'm usually not a big fan of changing the recvq files from their 
original form, however... so sometimes I keep a backup of the original 
or change $FILE to point to the new file.
