[hylafax-users] problem with sending faxes (sendfax freezes)

["Tobias Bartel" <mail@tobias-bartel.de>]

greetings,

these days i try to install hylafax (version  4.1.1) on my debian 3.0
(codname woody) box and i'm using a avm fritz! card as a fax.
so far i managed to get the fax reciving part up and running which should
proof that all the basics are working. however the sending a fax still is
a mystery for me.when i do a "sendfax" it just freezes and i have to interrupt the
operation with a crtl+c.
here is some output from the sendfax command:
router:/var/spool/hylafax/etc# cd /
router:/# sendfax -vv -n -d 17998528 /home/tobi/fax.ps

and that's it, it stops right here and does nothing, no error message in
any logfile or anything.btw. the fax ends up in the send queue but doesn't get delivered.

don't know if anybody needs it but here is some more stuff
