[hylafax-users] X-FAX headers and postfix - 'To' ?

[Uwe Dippel <udippel@xxxxxxxxx>]

Studied the documentation, the archives, googled.
So far I couldn't solve this:

With postfix, I can send an email to my hylafax server just fine. It
will create and dispatch a fax like:

To: 0123456789@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
From: udippel@xxxxxxxxx
Subject: This is a test fax
Date: 27-11-03

[...]

The trouble comes with the first line:

1. The recipient has fax number 0123456789; but doesn't know anything
about @fax.udippel.com; so she might be confused.

2. If the recipient is sufficiently intelligent and in computing, she
will understand that she has found a fax relay and send her own faxes
(for free !) through this relay from now onwards.

I don't want either.
So I started playing with hfaxd.conf and
Headers: "clear From Subject Cc Date"
I have no idea yet, if this works (weekend, no real-world fax around).

Even if it did work, I'd prefer to mangle the first line instead of
suppressing it:

To: 0123456789
From: udippel@xxxxxxxxx
Subject: This is a test fax
Date: 27-11-03

should be optimal.

I read some stuff on man faxmail and think something like

X-FAX-MapHeader:  might help ? But I'm not sure. It rather seems to
change the left side.
Plus: where and how could I put it in the header of my clients' clients ??


Just to continue:
Would we have some Access Control List for incoming mail ('From:' or
IP-addresses) to permit relaying only to specific senders of that e-mail
? I'm not very clear about how far all those controls available are
limited to network clients of hfaxd. I guess, they are.

Thanks for all comments in advance !

Uwe
