So you made sure to remove the res_fax.so module that was there from 1.6.2?
Tried cleaning out the modules directory then installing just the 1.8
modules to be safe?

Have you tried doing tests where you send all calls straight into ReceiveFax
and disable faxdetect? That may help track down where the problem is at
least. You can put a noop before the call to receivefax if you'd like, but
keep it simple and don't do anything else for this part of the test.

If you've got a paid for Fax license (as opposed to Free Fax) then you can
also contact Digium Support.
