Re: [hylafax-users] Bizzarre Question

["Kimble Young" <kimble@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've solved the problem myself.

For the archives:

c2faxsend parses -c lines just like they came straight out of the
config.faxCapi file.

So to get spaces to parse properly you need to provide literal quotes

eg c2faxsend -c LocalIdentifier:"\"My Company Name\"" -m faxCAPI sendq/q18

If you're calling it from a wrapper script like I was you need to do even
more escaping to pass the literal quotes.

It will also baulk on the following characters:

[]{}=:,-#

Hope this info helps

 Have you tried the quotes after the LocalIdentifier, i.e :

LocalIdentifier:"My Company Name"

 No idea if it will make any difference, but worth a try ;-)
