David,
Many thanks... I wanted to keep everything "in Asterisk" for ease of
portability. I appropriated some of your code and am now using the
following successfully:
exten => fax,1,Verbose(3,Incoming fax)
> same => n,Set(FAXDEST=/tmp)
> same => n,Set(tempfax=${STRFTIME(,,%C%y%m%d%H%M)})
> same => n,ReceiveFax(${FAXDEST}/${tempfax}.tif)
> same => n,Verbose(3,- Fax receipt completed with status: ${FAXSTATUS})
> same => n,System(echo -e "To: [email protected]\nSubject: FAX from
> ${CALLERID(all)}" | mime-pack "new fax" "${FAXDEST}/${tempfax}.tif"
> "application/tif" | sendmail -t)
> same => n,system(rm ${FAXDEST}/${tempfax}.tif)
> same => n,Hangup
Many thanks for your suggestion!
Shamus
