[hylafax-users] RelayFax Client questioins
Howdy, folks. A few questions for anyone with experience with the
RelayFax client.
The How-To at http://www.hylafax.org/howto/clients/RelayFax.html shows
this:

Okay. Can this be left with no password?

How do I do this? I know of MTAs like SendMail, QMail, and PostFix. Is
this the same thing? Or is a MDA a Mil Delivery Agent, instead of Mail
Transport Agent? Any help appreciated.

Will do once I have the rest set up. If anyone has figured this out,
let me know!
Thank you,
