permission to execute sendmail

No, go. I had thought of that. It is owned by user UUCP and group is UUCP
and has the permissions as 755. Any other suggestions would be great. When
I pipe the output to a log file instead using steps 1 - 4 suggested by
Giulio as seen below, I get a the following error:
bin/notify: line 842: /usr/sbin/sendmail: Permission denied
cat: write error: Broken pipe
1)
add the following as the 2nd line of bin/notify
set -x
exec 1> /tmp/notify.log 2>&1
2)
do sendfax -D .....
3)
wait for "notify" log in /var/log/messages
4)
Look at /tmp/notify.log, particularly for differences between this file and
the /tmp/mylog created manually.

Hi Gary
I had the exact same problem last week. Somehow my notify script became
owned by root (probably from editing it and making backups etc)
Change it back to the same as the other bin files and you should be fine.
Also make sures its chmodded as 755

I can't seem to get the notification to send e-mail.
I have used the sh -x notify command and get all of the expected
output, both to the screen as well as in an e-mail. So
manually running
the notify script works perfectly. When it is called from
sendfax with
the following command
sendfax -n -D -d 1234567 somefile
the fax sends perfectly, but I do not get any notification.
I am running Redhat Enterprise 3 using
sendmail 8.13 and Hylafax version 4.2.1
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
QUOTE FROM LIST FOLLOWS
1) Look at the system log (in Linux this usually is
/var/log/messages)for the line(s) reporting the notification.
For sent faxes it's something like:
FaxQueuer[19442]: NOTIFY: bin/notify "doneq/q27191" "done" "1:13"
FaxQueuer[19442]: NOTIFY exit status: 0 (9601)
2) You see the above lines but you don't get email, you get broken
email, or similar, do the following:
as root, go into the HylaFAX spool dir, ie:
# cd /var/spool/hylafax
then execute the command line you read above adding "sh -x" at the
beginning:
# sh -x bin/notify "doneq/q27191" "done" "1:13"
or
# sh -x bin/notify "doneq/q27191" "done" "1:13" > /tmp/mylog 2>&1
# less /tmp/mylog
