You could send using 1D via:

'sendfax -1 -n -d NUMBER file.txt'

If your Class 2 Connexant modem doesn't support 2D-MR, then I would 
recommend reconfiguring it as Class 1 because HylaFAX supports 1D and 
2D-MR in Class 1.

There's nothing HylaFAX can do to "fix" this... although I can't say why 
your sending server is even trying to send in 2D in the first place.  And 
even when it does do this, it should revert to 1D and retry.
