Test case 1

  • Install and configure or upgrade the nethserver-hylafax package
  • Try to send an email to sendfax@FQDN@, (provided FQDN is a Deliver locally mail domain in your mail server). Specify the fax recipient number on the Subject of the message
  • The mail server must refuse the dispatch

Test case 2

proceed from test case 1

  • Enable Mail to fax gateway field in FaxServer UI module
  • Save settings
  • Try to dispatch again: the mail server must accept the message only if the SMTP client is in the green or trusted networks
  • Make sure the mail is relayed to sendfax by looking for a line like this in /var/log/maillog (note relay=sendfax):
    Dec  4 09:00:19 vm2 postfix/pipe[3408]: 4EC1941F50: to=<sendfax@dpnet.nethesis.it>, relay=sendfax, delay=0.81, delays=0.24/0.04/0/0.53, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered via sendfax service)
  • Make sure the fax is enqueued by looking for a line like this in /var/log/messages:
