Re: [hylafax-users] sending outbound faxes to an email account.

1. send a copy of every successfully sent fax to an email address. This must be done at server level (in order to prevent users from changing the email address. The user may or may not specified their email address). users may be sending faxes from windows client using a fax client (WinHylaFAX).

2. then, i will implement a procmail recipe to get the .tif or .ps or pdf file from the email, then place it in a read only samba shared. (i am already doing something similar with all incoming faxes-- that one was really easy, just use the faxrecieved ;-) . ) I do not want to touch the queues content directly, thus this way i can do that. :D


Putting e-mail into the middle of that approach seems rather laborious to me. I would think that you could do what you want with the archiving (see 'man faxqclean') or maybe with FaxAccounting (see 'man xferfaxlog') in HylaFAX+. Then it's just a mere 'cp' rather than dealing with all of that mail stuff.
