NAME

6       pollrcvd - HylaFAX program for delivering facsimile received by polling
7

SYNOPSIS

9       /var/spool/hylafax/bin/pollrcvd mailaddr faxfile devid commid error-msg
10

DESCRIPTION

12       bin/pollrcvd  is  the  program invoked by the HylaFAX server whenever a
13       facsimile is received as a  result  of  a  polling  operation.   It  is
14       designed  to  be  customizable  by the administrator.  (Ideally this is
15       done by creating a customized pollrcvd program in a different  filename
16       or  by copying the default program to a different filename, customizing
17       that new file, and then using PollRcvdCmd in the modem config  file  to
18       point faxgetty(8C) at the customized program.  See hylafax-config(5F).)
19
20       The  default  program  uses electronic mail to deliver the facsimile to
21       the user that submitted the poll request.  The arguments are:
22
23       mailaddr  the electronic mail address of the user  that  submitted  the
24                 poll request.
25
26       faxfile   the  pathname  of the received TIFF file relative to the root
27                 of the spooling hierarchy.
28
29       commid    The communication identifier associated with the  call  (used
30                 to include a transcript when an error occurs).
31
32       devid     the modem device on which the document was received.
33
34       error-msg an error message that is non-null if an error was encountered
35                 during the receive operation.

NOTES

38       The default program delivers facsimile as PostScript wrapped  in  MIME.
39       This program can be customized for the intended receipient.  To do this
40       create a shell script etc/PollDispatch in the spooling area that sets
41
42       BCCTO  controls the blind copy recipient of the received fax  notifica‐
43              tion.  It is given as an e-mail address.
44
45       CCTO   controls  the  copy  recipient of the received fax notification.
46              It is given as an e-mail address.
47
48       LANG   controls the localization of the text of the received poll noti‐
49              fication.
50
51       FILETYPE
52              controls the filetype of the image attachment.  Current filetype
53              options are ``ps'', ``tif'', and ``pdf''.  Multiple  values  may
54              be  specified by separating them with whitespace. In that case a
55              separate attachment is created for each filetype.
