I've been experimenting with a few different versions, including a 
patched CVS distribution. I don't know what the Red Hat rpms do during 
upgrades, but when you start with sources and use ./configure, make, and 
make install, all the stuff in /var/spool/hylafax seems to remain 
intact, including the log files and the sendq, docq, and doneq 
directories. If you re-run "faxsetup," you may get a new config file for 
your modem, but I think it saves the old config file under another name.
