Re: accessing recvq directory



You might want to try making sure that HylaFAX saves the faxes with a
permission that can be read by others... note that the display shows
that only the owner (root) can read the files.

Try putting a line like:
RecvFileMode:	0644

in your spool/etc/config file and restart the faxq daemon.  New faxes
should be more accessible.  You'll need to manually reset the
permissions on the existing fax files for other-read.
