[asterisk-users] Mailing a fax with mutt does not succeed

Wed Jun 19 16:58:55 CDT 2013

This worked for me: 

System(date | mutt -s "FAX from
${CALLERID(num)}" -a
/var/spool/asterisk/fax/${STRFTIME(,,%Y%m%d)}-${CALLERID(num)}.tiff
mail at domain) 

I don't see any difference with you (beside the echo
instead of date), so I guess you should look at the maillog to find out
what is happening. Or (as I did in the end) write AGI script to send the
goddamn mail using the language and method you like (I used Perl and
MIME::Lite::TT::HTML), and make Asterisk call that script.

any entry in /var/log/maillog (or equivalent log file)? If so, mutt
