Mgetty-fax: Receiving multiple pages.

[Paul Schulz <pschulz@foursticks.com.au>]

Greetings,

I managed to set up the mgetty and mgetty-fax packages, at it is both
sending and receiving faxes straight out of the install..

1. Install packages 

2. To receive faxes, enable mgetty in '/etc/inittab' on the serial
   line that the faxmodem is attached to..

Sending faxes is with 'faxspool' with 'runfaxq' to send faxes on the
queue.

Now.. I received a multiple pages fax, but can only see the first page..

  1. mgetty-fax emails me the fax as a '.png' attachment
  2. I extract it using 'metamail -w' (need to edit it first though,
     which is a problem.)

This only gives me the first page.

I would like to know what other people are using, and if they're happy
with their system.  I just know my boss will be asking for a web based
front end to this.

Paul
