+ SPEEDS='38400 19200 9600 4800 2400 1200'
+ for SPEED in '$SPEEDS'
+ printf ' 38400'
38400+ SendToModem AT
+ sleep 1
++ tr -ds '\015' '\012'
++ /bin/sed -n '$p'
+ RESULT=AA
+ test AA = OK

Here is the primary problem.  When sending "AT" to the modem the modem 
responds with an "AA" result... or at least faxaddmodem thinks so.  Is 
that what happens when you do an "AT" command with minicom?  It *should* 
result in "OK".

That config file is for faxq and not faxgetty/faxsend, so copying it to 
config.ttyS0 will not work.

Worse-case scenario you should be able to construct the config file by 
hand.  The shortest route to that would be to start from any USR modem 
config files that you've seen passed around on this list in the 
archives.  Compare that with the "prototype" in 
/var/spool/hylafax/config/usr-xon and go from there to create your 
etc/config.ttyS0 file.
