FAQ

his is a living list of frequently asked questions about the FlexFAX/HylaFAX fax software system. The point of this document is to circulate existing information, and to avoid rehashing old answers. Better to build on top than start again. Please read this document before posting to the HylaFAX mailing list.

The HylaFAX software and this FAQ were created by Sam Leffler. From November 1995 the FAQ was maintained by Matthias Apitz who signficantly expanded the material. Since January 1997, however, the FAQ has been dormant and as a result, become out of date, and some places, misleading. The process of updating the FAQ started in late 1999 on an irregular basis by the hylafax.org web team. Until this process is complete, it is advisable to check the information here by searching the mailing list archives.

Your comments, additions and fixes to the FAQ are welcome: please send them to faq@hylafax.org. You can also give feedback on specific questions through links provided on each individual page. If you cannot find the information you need here or in the archives, please subscribe to the community mailing list and ask for help there.
