[hylafax-users] Relay Fax



I have amended my .procmail script to read as follows

SHELL=/bin/sh

RETURNPATH=`grep -e "return-path" -i | sed "s/^.*<//;s/>//"`
REST OF SCRIPT

The log comes back as

procmail: Executing "grep -e "return-path" -i | sed "s/^.*<//;s/>//""
procmail: Assigning "RETURNPATH="

>The procmail scripts I wrote were for use with RelayFax.

I am only using them for relay fax. Whether i send the fax by relay fax or
from an email it does not retrieve the returnpath string

>The INCLUDERC infinite loop is intentional because RelayFax allows the

that.

Ok, i`ve put the original script back in and its working correctly (can fax
to single or multiple recipients)

>The difference between RETURNPATH and FROMMAIL is significant in order to
>support a simple email-to-fax gateway *and* RelayFax.

This i understand but its the only way i can get relayfax to work because of
my returnpath problem.

>And, it would appear that you're not using that simple feature as intended,
anyway.

True, and now that the system is working for relayfax i am happy to leave it
as is. I only point this out as it seems odd that it doesn`t work in my case
using either method of sending faxes.
