There seems to be two problems shown in your logs.

First one is about an error while stopping hylafax. Was hylafax already installed? (Is this un upgrade or a new install?)

Second (and fatal) is about executable /usr/lib/sendmail missing. Could you check if this executable is present? What MTA is installed in this sistem? Was is alredy installed while configuring hylafax?

Thanks,
Giuseppe
