You'll have to kill both faxqs and then start one up again to get things 
right.

If this situation arises after time on its own, then you have something 
that is "restarting" the faxq service.  Sometimes the automatic restarts 
don't work right because faxq will not die immediately if a child 
process (e.g. faxsend) is running.  If a new faxq is started before the 
old one exits then the old one seems to linger and run.
