[hylafax-users] Strange FTP behavior when receiving long list of faxes.

[APS <dev.malst@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, I'm developing a library for connecting to hylafax from windows 
using FTP protocol.
I've some strange problem.
I launched a faxstat -vd and I saw that it use the LIST command.

-> PORT 127,0,0,1,213,33
200 PORT command successful.
-> LIST doneq
150 Opening new data connection for "doneq".
JID  Pri S  Owner Number       Pages Dials     TTS Status

if I manually connect from the same box to Hylafax FTP I cannot send 
a LIST command, I receive "Invalid Command" but I can send a DIR 
command that works correctly.
The strange thing is that connecting from a windows box with the FTP 
from command line and I send the DIR command I obtain:

ftp> dir doneq
200 PORT command successful.
150 Opening new data connection for "doneq".
226 Transfer complete.

it seems that it doesn't receive results but if I try the same 
command with a directory with fewer files, for example recvq I 
receive result correctly:

ftp> dir recvq
200 PORT command successful.
150 Opening new data connection for "recvq".
-rw-rw-    8  10           xxxxxxxxxx Thu07AM fax000011274.tif
-rw-rw-    9  10           xxxxxxxxxx Thu07AM fax000011275.tif
-rw-rw-    1  10           xxxxxxxxxx 11Nov08 fax000010322.tif
.....
226 Transfer complete.
ftp: 22336 bytes received in 1,02Seconds 21,98Kbytes/sec.

This is the same problem I have with my library, I tested with 
another ftp server with many files without problem. When there are a 
lot of data to send Hylafax seems to send them in a different way, 
maybe sending 226 before all data are sent, I don't know, but it 
generates some problems with the client.
You have experience on this kind of problem? You can suggest me 
something to do for better receiving data? Thanks in advance
