asterisk users - Sep 2009 - Fax For Asterisk and SendFax question

Hi everybody,

I've installed Free Fax For Asterisk in my Asterisk box but I don't
understand how it works as when using SendFax application from dialplan, I
can't find how to introduce destination fax number.
How this application works? Do I have to call destination fax using Dial
application, detect somehow that it's a fax and then use SendFAX application
specifying FAXOPTs and the path to the fax file?

Many thanks

That's the general idea.  The application is designed to send a TIFF over an
established connection.  You can detect that it is a fax or just assume so.

Hi!

I have a working Java implementation of a Hylafax integration for the 
asterisk 1.6 SendFAX / ReceiveFAX applications, which is in production 
use here. It sends outgoing faxes which were queued via hylafax and 
forwards incoming faxes via an email script. We are using it with a 
VoIP <-> ISDN PRI gateway (T.38). Contact me if you are interested.
