The basic concept that you need to recognize is that efax does not use 
scheduling.  So, it's kind-of like HylaFAX's 'sendfax -w' except that in 
the HylaFAX world there is a whole layer of faxq scheduling and modem 
allocation in the middle of that which efax does not have.

Therefore, 'sendfax -w' will not give you the session logging like you 
see from efax because in the HylaFAX perspective a single job could 
contain multiple sessions whereas with efax a session and a job are the 
same.

In HylaFAX if you want the session log you just get the session log from 
/var/spool/hylafax/log.

Thanks,

Lee.
