If mgetty or sendfax are run "as is", they will use their
compiled-in defaults from `policy.h'.
If the configuration files `mgetty.config' (see section Runtime configuration for mgetty: `mgetty.config') and `sendfax.config' (see section Runtime configuration for sendfax: `sendfax.config') exist (and are readable), both programs will get their run-time configuration from there. Items not specified there will still be taken from the compiled-in defaults. Command line switches will always override those settings. The configuration files are usually located in `/usr/local/etc/mgetty+sendfax/'.
If you specify command line arguments (see the mgetty(1) and sendfax(8) man pages for details), this will override both compiled-in and config file defaults.
