Re: flexfax: Problems with faxmail

Hi,

there is a thread in the HylaFAX-Archive:
http://www.hylafax.org/archive/1998-04/msg00112.html called "A
clue: mailer died with signal 13".

The guys found out that faxmail is buggy and have to fix.
I think you might try the 4.1beta2-Version
(http://www.hylafax.org/4.1beta2.html) there is a "faxmail-close
patch".

Perhaps it helps,
