Re: [hylafax-users] Anyone running external email to fax?

With sendmail?

Use sendmail's mailertable feature. For example:


fax.yourdomain.com smtp:hylafax.mydomain.com

That tells sendmail to redirect all mail to fax.yourdomain.com to the hylafax.mydomain.com host. Thus the HylaFAX host can assume all incoming mail is for faxmail. Or, use a dedicated port for it. Thus you could use faxnumber@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx for the addressing.

Another approach, also in mailertable, would be:

fax.yourdomain.com local:user

To send the mail to "user" alias which redirects to faxmail.

Really, it's just an exercise in sendmail configuration.
