Re: flexfax: Setting outbound defaults on fax->mail

[Ben Parker <ben@dha.unon.org>]

Depending on how you are doing the gateway, you need to create these
switches on the command lines of both faxmail and sendfax. Faxmail
controls the font (-f and -p), while sendfax controls resolution (-m =
fine), and mail notification (-DR). The -DR notifies both a re-queue as
well as success or failure...

/usr/local/bin/faxmail -n -f Courier-Bold -p 12 |
/usr/local/bin/sendfax -DR -m -d 'joe@5551212' (probably other switches
here like -f 'From Address <from@from.com>')
