Take a closer look.  Search this page:

http://hylafax.sourceforge.net/man/hylafax-config.php

For "DistinctiveRings".

My guess is that you needs something like this:

DistinctiveRings: F-8-4-8

However, you may also need to type your voice ring to make sure that 
those calls are not answered.

At some point in the future I'd like to see the distinctive ring 
information passed through to faxrcvd/FaxDispatch so that routing can be 
made based on the ring type (thus you could have a few different 
distinctive rings to identify different recipients, the total amount 
would be very limited).

Thanks,

Lee.
