It seems HylaFAX issued RTN and the remote end ignored it.

HylaFAX too, latest CVS, can be configured to ignore remote RTNs.
The spec says you should retry when you receive an RTN, but it's a
common practice to "ignore" RTNs.

When HylaFAX did not ignore remote RTNs, it would send the same page
over and over again.

The same would happen to the remote fax machines that are sending faxes
to you: they would start resending the same page to your HylaFAX
machines, that would keep saying "resend me the page".

So, try lowering the % of good lines so that your HylaFAX won't issue
RTN.
