Stefan,

The current release of HylaFAX is 4.4.1. You are running HylaFAX+. 
Although notifications in HylaFAX and HylaFAX+ are very different, they 
should both support your FaxDispatch file.

In general, you should not make any changes to bin/faxrcvd unless you 
_really_ know what you're doing, and understand why it cannot be done in 
FaxDispatch. Can you help us understand what's not working with your 
FaxDispatch file?

In general, when troubleshooting received fax notification problems, 
it's best to change directories to /var/spool/hylafax and then run the 
faxrcvd command by hand that you see HylaFAX reporting in /var/log/messages.

It will look something like:

cd /var/spool/hylafax
./bin/faxrcvd "recvq/fax000117105.tif" "ttyS0" "000577778" "" 
"2155551212" ""

To really see what's going on behind the scenes, try adding 'sh -x' to 
the beginning of that, like:

sh -x bin/faxrcvd "recvq/fax000117105.tif" "ttyS0" "000577778" "" 
"2155551212" ""
