Probably all were delivered in the same call, but were separated by EOM 
signals.  This sender behavior will break them up into separate TIFFs 
and commlogs in HylaFAX.  You'd have to ask Xerox why it does that, 
though.

There were 100 pages received in one call.

MaxRecvPages are per individual call.  Normally this means a single 
session, but if you consider EOM signals, which allow a sender to 
transmit multiple documents in one call, then it could actually mean 
multiple sessions.

Look at the end of those first 3 "sessions" and you will see an EOM 
signal, I suspect.
