[hylafax-users] Custom FaxDispatch



Howdy, folks. I've been checking out the docs, and I wanted to know if 
anyone could help me with a problem. I want to make a custom 
FaxDispatch that will allow redirection of received faxes depending on 
which modem received the fax.

I want to do the following:

1.) Faxes received on ttyS0 should be saved to /shared/fax as a PDF
2.) Faxes rec'd on ttyS1 should be printed to a printer named "printer1"
3.) Faxes rec'd on ttyS2 should be sent as a PDF attachment to 
recept@company.com

  A little while back, this message passed through the list. I replied, 
but got no response:

It seems to me that this is pretty much what I want to do, but I am not 
certain. First, I assume that this would go in the FaxDispatch file. 
Second, i assume that I would need to make it look something like this 
(though bear with me b/c i am not familiar with case statements):

case "DEVICE" in
	ttyS1)
		FILETYPE=PDF;
		SENDTO=/shared/fax;    <----THIS HAS GOT TO BE WRONG!!!!
	tyS1)
	ttyS2)
		/usr/sbin/tiff2ps -a $FILE | lp;;
	ttyS2)
	ttyS3)
		FILETYPE=PDF;
		SENDTO=recept@company.com;
	tyS3)
Esac

Besides a few missing semi-colons, what am I missing?

Thank you,

Tom
