 It's attached. It is very basic, but the general concept is there. The
settings for master.cf and the transport entry are appended to the bottom
of the script. It doesn't require a transport limit in main.cf like
faxmail. And, as I mentioned, you would also need ripmime:

 I haven't worked on this script for ages, but if it is of any use to
anyone, I can try and refine it or add some extra functionality. Let me
know the verdict.

 Be warned, it is definitely no work of art, and only lightly tested :)

 Generally, usage instructions are the same as for faxmail. Attachment
wise, there are no conversion functions built in, so attachments have to
be sendfax native types.
