Everyone,

I have been using hylafax+ on a Centos 5.11 machine for 5 years with
two outboud faxes and one inbound fax. I am using hylafax+-5.5.9

Recently one of our clients required the submission of multiple fax
commands to the same number.

hylafax certainly recognizes the same number and appears to alternate
faxing out of both outbound faxes to the same number.

After 'so many' faxes to the same number hylafax+ stops sending to that
number.  Other outbound numbers work without a problem, but the fax
queue with the blocked number remains full of the blocked number.  When
this happens I have to restart hylafax and the fax queues of the
blocked fax start again.

It appeared to me that hylafax was recognizing a large queue of the
same number and interpreted the presence of this large queue as a bad
fax.  The receiving fax is a busy fax and does have some 'busy'
problems.

I have changed the value of MaxConsecutiveBadCmds:=C2=A0=C2=A060 in
/etc/hylafax/hfaxd.conf which was originally set to 10.  This appeared
to help, but did not solve the problem.  The number of consecutive
faxes to the same number has been in the range of 40 to 45.

The /var/messages entries appear to be :

Jul 18 22:58:52 MaBa FaxQueuer[18820]: NOTIFY: bin/notify-smile
'sendq/q93617' 'blocked' ''
Jul 18 22:58:52 MaBa FaxQueuer[18701]: NOTIFY: bin/notify-smile
'sendq/q93612' 'requeued' '' '23:03'
Jul 18 22:58:52 MaBa FaxQueuer[18701]: NOTIFY: bin/notify-smile
'sendq/q93613' 'requeued' '' '23:03'
Jul 18 22:58:52 MaBa FaxQueuer[18701]: NOTIFY: bin/notify-smile
'sendq/q93614' 'requeued' ''

Any thoughts as to a solution would be appreciated.

Greg Ennis
