---------------------------------
(in English, so that everybody understands this thread)
Text above translated:(short)
Could it be that the modem denies calling after certain dial attempts occured?
This is an old relict of the German phone infrastructure.
....
I don't know if the Sedlbaur Card has integrated something like this.
....
I got only bad experience with this Card, because of the bad quality of
the faxes.

No it seems that HylaFAX is hanging, the faxes where sent before I upgradet to Redhat 7.1 and Hylafax 4.1.
If the error occures, I have to restart Hylafax, but if I do that with
/etc/rc.d/init.d/hylafax restart
I get messages in the log:

but there are no tries to send the faxes. First I have to stop HylaFAX, then waiting 30 Seconds and then starting it aggain, after that HylaFAX begins to send the faxes.

If I don't notice that Hylafax is not sending the faxes, the only thing happening is that after running out killtime the faxes are deleted from queue.
