Re: flexfax: RetrainNegative problem - not in FAQ

[Damian A Ivereigh <damian@cisco.com>]

It is my understanding that this is caused by some dud coding in the
taglines. Most fax machines ignore it - others do not and send back a
RetrainNegative.

There is a patch for it on http://www.elgro.demon.co.uk/patchlist.html
it is called 'tagline.patch'.

This is almost certainly on the Hylafax web site too, but I'm not sure
where.
