Probably the bug in HylaFAX 4.0pl2 when faxmail is run on libc6 systems. You
need the textfmt-mailer patch from

http://www.hylafax.org/patches/index.html

The mailing list archives has a email dated 10-Apr-98 from Robert giving all
the gruesome details.

I believe there is a newer binary package for SuSE based on v4.1beta2, which
has this and other bugs fixed; perhaps someone can tell us if this is true
and where it can be obtained.
