Hey real new to linux got to know it alot when installing hylafax in a server client invoroment it was good fun seemed to work find ie can send faxes receive them edit permissions etc only thing that is that doesnt work is message conformation it just doesnt want to work i the only error message i get is in the notify file and it says script setup.cache is missing and its not i can locate it in the spooling area of hylafax i use winprint as my client and input my email address for notification but the email just never arrives i have no idea with this one as im pretty new to the hole linux think if this work im very happy with linux so far all the things are set like faxmaster=always and stuff so i have no idea whats going on i would love some help on this one guys
Sounds like you are probably smarter about Hylafax than I am but... just thought I would try to help.
When I did not have the faxmaster set up how I wanted it, I would see emails from Hylafax in /var/spool/mail. They were just in a file called "fax". Maybe your mails are going there.
Also, check in etc/aliases. Don't know your distro, but suse uses the list in there to decide where emails go, i.e. system emails. I think I had to add who the faxmaster is in that file.
Also, maybe unrelated, I have in /etc/hosts this note:
# hylafax seemed to suggest to put this in. 10 June 05
# because sendfax was saying: "Can not reach server at host "localhost", port 4559"
127.0.0.1 localhost loopback

Anyway, maybe not very helpful, but good luck.
Iv had a look in there and it seems all my mail is going to root ?!?! how do i change this so it sends it to email addresses if i double click on the root all the emails seem to be there dam this is annoying but il stick at it with sum help from you guys !!!
and one thing i notice is that aliases the file are in a folder called postfix on the server that does work with notification, and the aliases are just in the default on the one that notification does not work
