hyla.conf is read by all client binaries (faxstat, sendfax, ...) to set
default config options. Usually all command line switches of sendfax have
equivalent config options for hyla.conf.

hfaxd.conf is read by hfaxd and carries:
- parameters which has meaning for the server process only 
- server defaults for clients (ie; JobFmt can be set in both files,
hyla.conf takes precendece; you could ask "why put into 2 files?", because
you can run "faxstat" on a system pointing to an hfaxd on another networked
system, so if the firt system does not have hyla.conf, the 2nd system
hfaxd.conf JobFmt will be used)
