POLLRCVD(8C)POLLRCVD(8C)NAMEpollrcvd - HylaFAX script for delivering facsimile received by polling
SYNOPSIS
/var/spool/fax/bin/pollrcvd mailaddr faxfile devid commid error-msg
DESCRIPTION
bin/pollrcvd is the command script invoked by the HylaFAX server when‐
ever a facsimile is received as a result of a polling operation. It is
designed to be customizable by the administrator. (Ideally this is
done by creating a customized pollrcvd script in a different filename
or by copying the default script to a different filename, customizing
that new file, and then using PollRcvdCmd in the modem config file to
point faxgetty(8C) at the customized script. See hylafax-config(5F).)
The default script uses electronic mail to deliver the facsimile to the
user that submitted the poll request. 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.
This script can be customized for the intended receipient. To do this
create a shell script etc/PollDispatch in the spooling area that sets
BCCTO controls the blind copy recipient of the received fax notifica‐
tion. It is given as an e-mail address.
CCTO controls the copy recipient of the received fax notification.
It is given as an e-mail address.
LANG controls the localization of the text of the received poll noti‐
fication.
FILETYPE
controls the filetype of the image attachment. Current filetype
options are ``ps'', ``tif'', and ``pdf''. Multiple values may
be specified by separating them with whitespace. In that case a
separate attachment is created for each filetype.
