flexfax: Re: faxmail :attachment file ?

[Salih Tilkici <Salih.Tilkici@dut.net.tr>]

Hi,

I am working on faxmail mime converter script. I'm trying to convert tiff
to ps. I know that my converter script is working. Because I'm redirecting
a copy to another file and it seems ok. 

But when I try to display the doc file only From and subject displayed.
The attachment parts are displayed as blank. When I look at the source of
docq file, I can see the converted tiff part in postscript format. I think
it is merging two postscript files in wrong format.

How can solve this problem. Can anyone send an example (working;) 
converter script. I'm using a script like this: 
===========================================================
#!/bin/sh
   file=$1
   TMP=/tmp/debugfile
#This is for faxmail
   convert tiff:$file ps:-
#this is for testing
   convert tiff:$file ps:$TMP
===========================================================

Regards,

Salih Tilkici

PS: I'm using ImageMagick's convert program.
