[asterisk-users] Send Fax from Asterisk

[Dmitry]

About 4 years ago I made it (outbound faxing):
I wrote a Perl script which fetched the message with PDF file from an external POP3 or IMAP box. (I did not succeed to use  a Fetchmail utility on Centos so  had to write my own one)
Then I wrote a BASH script which parsed the mail message, it took the Called number and the PDF file was converted to TIFF and a CAll file was constructed.

All this worked reliably but only with automatic faxes.  The scenario when someone answeres the call (not fax) failed.

Thanks for sharing the link. Actually I'm looking for a different approach without installing/using third party i.e. a user sends an email to Asterisk (which is also running mail service), as Asterisk receives the mail where the mail contains attachment and subject contains destination  number,  Asterisk will download the file and capture the number and later send fax to destination number just like '.call' file.
