1. Where can I get the received fax? In FaxDispatch it says that by default all faxes will be sent to Faxmaster, but who is Faxmaster?



FaxMaster is generally defined in your /etc/aliases file. (After modifying it you generally must run newaliases and possibly restart your SMTP.)


That said, I generally recommend that FaxMaster be directed to root, as the root account generally handles all system-maintenance type of things like LogWatch and so forth. In that case you use SENDTO to dispatch the mail. So your FaxDispatch would be thus:

 NOTIFY_FAXMASTER=errors
 FILETYPE=pdf
 SENDTO=your_email@xxxxxxxxxxx

2. In FaxDispatch it is also stated that all fax will be automatically converted to PDF, but it seems that it still in tiff?



Flush all of whatever you have in your FaxDispatch and put what I said above.


3. Is metamail required? I've tried to install metamail from hylafax FTP, but faild in building it.


You must have metamail, sharutils, or base64-encode. (sharutils has uuencode.) Undoubtedly your distro has one of these.
