how to get the ID from the reciving fax-mashine

• Messages sorted by:[ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ]

Gert,

One way using this information is to 'append' a strip which
contains when and where the fax has actually been sent to the
original g3 files which can be filed, printed or whatever.

Could be useful for logging(hardcopy) purpose.

Inbound fax routing for *outbound* faxes?  He was talking about faxrunq,
this means he is sending a fax away.  No "inbound routing" on his side
here.

We're not talking about receiving faxes (there the fax ID is passed to
new_fax, which could do what you're looking for).
