while a reception record is of the form:
date RECV modem fax TSI local-number sigrate format #pages time "reason"
where the fields are interpreted as:
- date
-
The date and time of the transaction in the format
MM/DD/YY HH:MM,
where
MM
is the numeric month,
DD
the numeric day,
YY
the last two digits of the year, and
HH:MM
is the time in 24-hour format.

(receptions are always attributed to the ``fax'' user).

The format is one of: ``1-D MR'', ``2-D MR'', ``2-D Uncompressed Mode''
(2-D MR with optional uncompressed data), and, ``2-D MMR''.
The page counts are always integral numbers.
Partial pages that are to be retransmitted are not included
