[asterisk-users] send fax by Iaxmodem ?

[Marco Mouta]

Hi all,

First let me say thank you for Lee Howard, you definitely  found my problem
on sending faxes!

I'm using hy-email2fax to send faxes, and i notice that is there the problem
is starting, as the subject of my .eml file contains only the phone number
but then some how hy-email2fax is not detecting the ^M at the end of
subject.

I'm not an used with sed so it will take me some time to understand how it
works and correct this.

By the way i notice a small isse "bug" on hy-email2fax available for
download on
http://wpkg.org/email2fax/files/hy-email2fax

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#########################################
# Make a temporary file out of an email #
#########################################

cat |  sed 's/
$//'>$EMAILFILE

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I only got Hy-email2fax working fine after changing this to:

cat |  sed 's/$//'>$EMAILFILE


Any ways this is working fine only for tests, because as i mentioned above
"I'm in troubles with a carriage return on email subject", to test
Sucessfully this hy-email2fax i hardcoded the variable NEWNUMBER="XXXX" to
my dialed number.

After this Hands on I can sucessfully send faxes with Hy-email2fax -->
Hylafax--->asterisk Sucessfully.

But as i mentioned before i need to get ride of ^M on the subject line.

Any one can help me on this?

Best regards,
Marco Mouta
