Re: [hylafax-users] Routing received faxes



Thanks Lee,

That's got it working like a charm.

For the benefit of others in a similar situation, I also added the line
NOTIFY_FAXMASTER=errors;
to the FaxDispatch script so the faxmaster doesn't receive every fax as
well, only errors.

See: http://bugs.hylafax.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=517

Put "*61738012210" instead of "61738012210".

Lee.
