Re: [hylafax-users] Forward incoming faxes

["Karlheinz Reimann" <k.reimann@trillian.de>]

Hi Milos,

I use a modified faxrcvd:


create an alias for the faxreceiver in your mail system
and you may use this modified /var/spool/fax/bin/faxrcvd as example

... there may be better solutions, but this script is working well for us

The file $SPOOL/etc/setup.cache is not present.  This
probably means the machine has not been setup using the faxsetup(1M)
