    I want to send faxes by email.
    I should put mail_fax in "Reception"
    But it does not work.   :(
    Please, someone I'll explain more how to do?
    I read the "Readme" but I did not understand anything.
    Using Ubuntu Server 11.04 with efax-gtk 3.2.6

    thank you very much

    Faxes are sent using a fax modem over a telephone line.  efax-gtk does not send them by e-mail.

    The mail_fax script is for forwarding a received fax to a nominated user.

    ok .. mail_fax works perfectly….

    but I still have this problem:

    Warning: bit-reversed HDLC frame, reversing bit order
    Warning: frame error

    you have any idea that?

    Thanks for your answers!

    I shouldn't worry about the warnings.  You are probably using a non-real software modem with issues, but it shouldn't affect what it produces.

    Actually, the machine works, and emails arrive, but by an error when sending and who sends the same fax sent repeatedly.
