FaxMail Problem?



I am attenpting to run HylaFAX (4.0pl1) mail2fax gateway on a FreeBSD 2.2.1
machine.  It is a send only machine using Multimodems ZDX2834 modems.

Faxq is running.  (I have two processes calling themselves faxq, is this 
normal?)  

Looking at the FAQ 61 and some mail between Donald Burr and Phil
Watkinson, I have the Mfax in my sendmail.cf as well as the rewrite rule
in ruleset 0.  faxmail is chmod 555 and the faxlog to 666.

When I try to use the alias method,  I get the following session...

# mail -v jrobb@cre8tivegroup.com
Subject: Test 8
Testing try 8

Call me.

Actually sending to jim@8168824.fax gives me...

# mail -v jim@8168824.fax

Could all this mean that I do not have the Mfax definition in the right
place?  I put it into the /etc/sendmail.cf file, since I am not that 
familar with sendmail.  Nor could I find the .mc or .m4 files.

Any suggestions?
