Re: [hylafax-users] How can I recive fax by email?

[Rueben Gooch <rueben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ali,
Here is a copy of my FaxDispatch file:

FILETYPE=pdf;
SENDTO=FaxMaster;
MIMENCODE=bin/uuencode_it;

That's it and this sends email to Faxmaster as a pdf.  Hope this helps.

Two ways. The proper way to do it is modify a file called FaxDispatch. Check
your faxrcvd to see where it's sourcing it from. Mine is
/var/spool/fax/bin/FaxDispatch, but this is on Suse 9.3. Yours probably
would be /var/spool/hylafax/bin/FaxDispatch, or maybe etc/FaxDispatch.  If
it's not there you may have to create it (I've run into this with a
distribution before). If all else fails, open faxrcvd in a text editor and
look for the file it's trying to source to apply customizations. When you
find it, set the variable SENDTO to the email address you want it to send
to. Make sure you have a proper sendmail command installed.

The other way to do it is to set that variable right in the faxrcvd script.
However, this may not be a good idea because when you upgrade, it may get
overwritten (I don't think make install will, but certain distributions
might). I'd try to exhaust FaxDispatch before modifying faxrcvd.
