Re: [hylafax-users] Secure Email2Fax via internet

[Chris Weiss <cweiss@xxxxxxxxx>]

I use this in a transport in exim:
command ="/usr/local/bin/faxmail -n -T | /usr/local/bin/sendfax -R -n -o ${sender_address_local_part} -f ${sender_address} -d ${local_part}"

it bases the user off the email address automatically, as I recall, and for security use SMTP auth.

Or, I guess you could make something that requires the user put auth in the body and you could pipe to a parser instead

what do you mean by define "secure"?

I need the users  that need to send by email to authenticate before accepting
to post to fax.
