    I've got a local only email - fax gateway.  Works wonderfully, so no
    problem there.
    
    I am working on a perl script to handle all the faxes that can't be sent
    for whatever reason, and print them to a laser printer for snail mail
    delivery.  This script works well for "normal" errors (no answer, phase
    B errors, etc).
    
    But it does not work for faxes that are killed at the killtime.   They
    are not moved to the doneq directory, as far as I can tell.

I've just run a test and the jobs are moved to the spool/doneq
if killtime arrived.
    
    I emulate the faxqclean program (As best I can) to accomplish what I want.  I
    search the doneq directory for a "status" line that is non-empty.  Any that
    have a string get printed.  That, again, works just fine.

The "status:" line in the spool/doneq/q#### is empty (I'll have a look
at the code if this should be changed).
    
    But is there anyway to know what faxes have been killed?  I get the error
    messages by email (example below), but I want to automate this printing as well.
    
    I appreciate the hints/help!

One thing that could be checked is the tts: and killtime: lines
and check if tts >= killtime (which isn't really waterproof);
