pollrcvd8
Hylafax script for delivering facsimile received by polling
Usage
/var/spool/hylafax/bin/pollrcvd mailaddr faxfile devid commid error-msg
Overview
bin/pollrcvd is the command script invoked by the HylaFAX server whenever a facsimile is received as a result of a polling operation. The default script uses electronic mail to deliver the facsimile to the user that submitted the poll request, and can be controlled by editing the etc/PollDispatch shell script in the spooling area that is sourced by pollrcvd when it runs. The arguments are:
mailaddr-
the electronic mail address of the user that submitted the poll request.
faxfile-
the pathname of the received TIFF file relative to the root of the spooling hierarchy.
commid-
The communication identifier associated with the call (used to include a transcript when an error occurs).
devid-
the modem device on which the document was received.
error-msg-
an error message that is non-null if an error was encountered during the receive operation.
Notes
The default script delivers facsimile as PostScript wrapped in MIME.
Files
/var/spool/hylafax spooling area /usr/sbin/faxinfo for printing information about the facsimile /usr/bin/fax2ps for converting TIFF to PostScript /usr/lib/sendmail for delivering mail
