If you open the attached file in a text editor, could it be that it looks like 
a text file and that all lines are starting with a capital M and that the 
file is about 64KB in size?
I had that here and I found that the code in the faxrcvd script was not 
working like it should be. To fix this I created a version of my own that 
uses mutt to attach and send the fax instead. Works like a charm here, maybe 
it works for you too.
