[hylafax-users] Help - Email attachments not working :-(



I've setup HylaFAX 4.1.1 and it's sending faxes nicely and receiving them,
plus I'm getting Emailed notifications.

The only problem is that I can't get it to Email me the faxes as TIFFs. It's
Emailing me a zero length TIFF file. I haven't tried a PS/PDF file yet I'd
prefer JPEG actually.....)

The FTP address in the Email is non-existant - it will say e.g.
fax00000012.tif which is the name of the file in /var/spool/hylafax/recvq but
my FTP client is showing it as including the full date too, so I'll get a
listing like....

        14  -r -r -      4087272001 Thu03PM fax00002.tif
        14  -r -r -      4087272001 Fri03PM fax00003.tif

The only way I can access the faxes is either through Cypheus or by cp'ng the
file into a Samba share (I get a 500 'RETR 4087272001 Fri03PM fax00003.tif':
Syntax error, expecting <CRLF> error using FTP).

I installed from the RPM, and it's running on RedHat 7.2, ghostscript 6.0,
faxgetty and exim, setup as per the website instructions.

/etc/hylafax/etc/FaxDispatch reads....

        FILETYPE=tif;
        MIMENCODE=bin/uuencode_it;

....and /var/spool/hylafax/bin/uuencode_it reads....

        #!/bin/sh
        uuencode -m $1 $1 | grep -E -v "^begin|^====$" 2>/dev/null

....as per the instructions

Please help as once I've got this attachment thing sorted I'm 100% working
and can start on my planned web frontend/JPEG conversion.
