Re: [hylafax-users] Batch help?

[rortgiesen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Interesting re: the info file.  I have more "supportsBatching:no" files
than I might have suspected, would you just briefly describe what this
indicates, I'll do some checking myself also, I'm sure others would be
interested in knowing.

In order to ensure that these jobs batched you'd have to use a
time-to-send setting that is in the future far enough that the last job
gets queued before the time-to-send arrives.  Otherwise, the first job
gets into the queue, and the server starts sending it before the client
can even get the second one into the queue.  However, the above command
will actually trigger a batch in some environments... depending on
various things that influence the responsiveness of the server... but
without a future time-to-send it's impossible to guarantee it.

In this case you are using a future time-to-send, and so if these jobs
are not batched then there is some other problem involved.  Do these not
batch?  If not, then please check /var/spool/hylafax/info/14016670000
for SupportsBatching.
