Has anyone configured ast_fax (sending faxes via asterisk)
with sendmail? The creation of rules to trap all numbers [EMAIL PROTECTED] seems too
complicated. Does anyone have setup details to share? (I don't want
to switch MTA's).
As a workaround, I could
launch the app automatically from sendmail using an alias like:
fax: "| /ast_fax"
That way sending to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] is easily
handled by the sendmail program
(without complex rules for numbers at the TO:) and launches the ast_fax app. The phone numbers to fax
to could be entered into to subject line of the
email.
I looked
at eps (address.c) and and
ast_fax (ast_fax.c) and it looks
like all that is needed is modifying address.c (or copy it so subject.c) to
extract from the Subject line instead of the To
line. Making this even more useful would be adding a parameter to
the .call file which tells ast_fax to extract phone numbers from either the TO:
line (default) or the SUBJECT line.
I'm wondering if
something like this has already been done? (I wouldn't want to reinvent
the wheel)....
Alternatively, does someone have a working sendmail config to
share?
Thanks
MD
