There were two times that the format of the fax identification TIFF tags 
were modified in HylaFAX releases following the 4.1 release so many 
years ago. I did those modifications, and I did attempt to make things 
backwards-compatible with old .tif fax files. So it should be working if 
you had just copied the .tif files to the new recvq directory.

If you're talking about outbound jobs... then I can't remember what 
changes could have altered things there.

If you send me some sample files from your system which aren't showing 
up from 'faxstat' then I'll gladly take a look.

Thanks,

Lee.
