Does the client submit its e-mail address to the server? Set the necessary
tracing level and check hfaxd's log. It should contain something like

Jan 24 12:20:03 gw HylaFAX[15062]: command: JNEW
Jan 24 12:20:03 gw HylaFAX[15062]: <--- 200 New job created: jobid: 452 groupid: 452.
[...]
Jan 24 12:20:03 gw HylaFAX[15062]: command: JPARM NOTIFYADDR dbely
Jan 24 12:20:03 gw HylaFAX[15062]: <--- 213 NOTIFYADDR set to "dbely".
[...]
Jan 24 12:20:03 gw HylaFAX[15062]: command: JSUBM

If client fails to issue JPARM NOTIFYADDR, check if it's properly
configured.

Hope to hear from you soon,
Dmitry
