Re: flexfax: Rule based inbound fax processing

["Steven Cruysberghs" <broux-werken@skynet.be>]

This can be done creating a file called FaxDispatch in your
/var/spool/fax/etc directory.
This file can contain te following :

case "$SENDER" in
*ingram)  SENDTO=buyer@katy.com;;
*Customer) SENDTO=sales@katy.com;;
# more lines here
esac

The exact syntax of this file is explained in one of the man pages.
The actual processing (forwarding by email or printing or ...) of the
incomming faxes is done with the faxrcvd script that can be found in the
/var/spool/fax/bin dir.

Hope this helps

Steven
