Hi, I have an extention setup to receive fax. If the line rings, PBX answers the calll and receive the fax. The tif file is generated in /var/spool/asterisx and according to the PBX log the /usr/share/ombutel/scripts/process_fax_in is executed without error.

The problem is that the email is never sent. If I look in the outgoing mail log there’s no entry about the received fax. Email from the PBX is working as Voicemail to Email works great. Fax to Email and Fax Enable are active on that extention avanced tab and a valid email address is present on the general tab. The tif file is ok as I’m able to copy it to my workstation and open it with a picture viewer. The only thing missing to make it work is the email with the attachement.

I’m running Vital PBX v2.3.1-1. Is there anything I forgot to enable to make this thing working?

Thank you

Did you already configure the email settings?

@vincentpaquette Please tell exactly how you setup to receive a fax.

I had the same problem. Fax detection is not working at all. It will just not see or hear a Fax.
So i set Destination to “Fax Settings” and when called there is the fax-tone and it will recieve. But no e-mail will be send out. Other e-mails are going out fine.

@mrivera : About email settings, the smtp settings are configured and tested as well as the email address on my extention general tab. Fax to Email and Fax enable options are ON on the advanced tab of the extention. Is there any other settings for email?

@mo10 : my FAX DID is routed to a custom application with a fax setting destination pointing to my FAX extention. In my FAX ext, I enabled FAX Enabled and Fax to mail on advanced tab. It looks you have the same issue as I do.

Did you check your SPAM folder?, maybe arrive as SPAM.

if you can not find it in the SPAM folder, may you send a call trace from Asterisk CLI?

It’s not in the spam folder. If I look into /var/log/maillog, there’s no trace of an email being sent for the fax. Here’s my log for an incominf fax. I replaced senstive phone number by XXXXXXXXXX and email address.

I already check the call log and all info that you have provided, and, I think you forgot to enable fax detection in the inbound routes.

Check the picture attached.

Am running 2.4.0-5 as multi-tenant with fax number in the primary tenant, and not getting any emails. Faxes are coming in fine and show in the Fax Viewer. Just no emails. Yes emails work in other parts of the system, such as voicemail attachments (using custom SMTP).

Creating a Fax Device is straightforward and understandable. Inbound Route for faxes is quite confusing.

1. Is an extension with Fax Enabled required in all of this?

2. At Inbound Route, there is an option for Fax Settings and Fax Detection. What else would go there? Fax Settings pointing to an extension, or Fax Device pointing to a fax device?

3. Also at Inbound Route there is the option for Inbound Destination, and same as #2 above, what would go here? Seems quite redundant to me. So please clarify.

Attached is a screenshot of my Inbound Route settings. Again, even when it works am not getting the email. Thanks.

Okay found the issue. The fax server is attempting to send mail out as ‘uucp’. My SMTP server is rejecting that as a valid sender.

Seems to me the fax server should be pulling the same SMTP info as the rest of the system, particularly the sender email account, or be able to specify the sender email address in Global Fax Settings or Fax Devices.

So please address this email issue, and please explain the apparent redundancy of the Inbound Route destination settings and the “proper” way to do it.

One final request on this… The ability to alter the email message for the fax server, similar to voicemail messages.

No offense, but I don’t want my customers getting a signature line of “VitalPBX”.
