Gang,

I'm new to the list, and program and I've done as much reading as I can
muster to try to resolve this problem without posting questions you all have
seen before...but I'm stuck. Here is what I did, how I got here, and what
I'm trying now. (Sounds like something else, kudos if you caught that one.)

I've got an IBM 300PL PIII/500/128
RedHat 7.2
USR Courier V. Everything
HylaFax 4.1.5

The senerio I'm going for is the have this machine parse outgoing email
designated to any ".fax" domain to fax quotes to our clients from the sales
workstations. (eg: salesuser1@8005551212.fax)

I've got HylaFax installed and running on the machine. I'm having issues
finding a way to get FaxGetty running on startup. If I start it from the a
shell, it starts up fine. If I add...

t2:2345:respawn:/usr/sbin/faxgetty ttyS1

...to the last line of my /etc/inittab, nothing. Is there a better way to
start it?

How much configuration should I have to do to sendmail? Would it be easier
to go with a different mailing daemon?  Is there a simple script that'll
accomplish what I'm looking for under something like qmail? I've found a
handful of configurations in the list archives, but they are all dated 1998
or 2000. I'd expect this has come up more recently than that.

Same thing for automatic printing of received faxes. Everything I find is
seemingly old.

Sorry if these are re-posts of earlier emails. I made sure to do as much
hunting as I could before posting to yall.

Thanks for your help.

-Doug
