I did this long time ago but cant seem to recall the way to have a received
fax emailed to someone.

I did some searching and found that I should in  etc/FaxDispatch (usually
/var/spool/hylafax/etc/FaxDispatch) add the following lines:

FILETYPE=tif;
SENDTO=FaxMaster;
FROMADDR=my_email_address;

I added the lines but I don't see how the connection is made to my MTA -
BTW I installed msmtp as my send only MTA and want to use that.

So would changing :

SENDTO=FaxMaster;  to SENDTO= msmtp "mail message'| [email protected]

work or should I edit FaxMaster in some way?  Or is there another approach?


Thanks for the advice.

Best regards
