Re: [hylafax-users] Sendmail faxmail mangling



Place the phone number in front of the @, and whatever mail domain your server is receiving for after the @.  That should at least get the format correct

Sorry about that garbage on the last email.

Yes, I have metamail. 

I realized that I, in fact,  DIDN'T have:

define(`FAX_MAILER_PATH',`/usr/bin/mail2sendfax')dnl
define(`FAX_MAILER_ARGS',`mail2sendfax -d -n -p 12pt $u@$h $f')dnl
MAILER(`fax')dnl

In my sendmail.mc but instead had:

define(`FAX_MAILER_PATH',`/usr/bin/mail2sendfax')dnl
define(`FAX_MAILER_ARGS',`faxmail -d -n -p 12pt $u@$h $f')dnl
MAILER(`fax')dnl

Which was failing.  I fixed this and tried a fax to User.Name@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx and it is trying to send the fax using the User.Name as the TONUMBER.

Any ideas now?

Argh.
Thanks
Lucas

The mail2sendfax script uses metamail. Have you got metamail?

Thanks,

Lee.
