[hylafax-users] Failed faxes in the doneq

["Sam Paakki" <smp@varacom.com.au>]

Hi all!

What is the best logic (or correct way) to determine if a fax that 
has a status of done (ie, in doneq) has been successfully fax and 
therefore can be cleaned?

I have faxes that fail to be successfully sent, due to things like 
reaching the max transmission attempt count, that get flagged as 
done, then faxqclean cleans them up.

I've therefore (for the time being) removed the hourly cron job for 
faxqclean and decided I'll write my own script that only cleans out 
faxes that have been successfully transmitted.  I just need to know a 
safe way to determine if it has failed or not...

This way, through a ChUI (Progress) program that I've written, 
someone can decide if they want to retry sending the failed faxes 
and/or print copies of them (usually POs of remittance advices) and 
manually send them.

TIA,
Sam.
