Did you check the box "fetch received fax via ftp" in system preferences?

My users would say: Too complicate!

You have to change to 664 for the received files if you want to read 
them or 666 if you also want to delete them. I don´t know why you have 
to do this for world (because you log in with whfc as a user x and the 
user is a member of the group uucp) but it works for me. Maybe we need 
still a little help from the rest of the list?

That´s rhe way I do it.
