Avery Pennarun has provided the script efax-convert (included in the examples
directory) to convert incoming faxes into MIME'ed emails. If this script is
saved as /usr/local/bin/efax-convert, it can be activated via the $NOTIFY
variable in /etc/efax.rc as follows:
NOTIFY='/usr/local/bin/efax-convert "$REMID" $FILES'
Notice that it will move faxes from $FAXDIR (usually /var/spool/fax/) into a
subdirectory $FAXDIR/done which the weekly cron job for the efax package still
clean.
The fax(1) program itself also provides a faxmail() function which can be
used via $NOTIFY, please see /usr/bin/fax and /etc/efax.rc
Also note there is a Fax-Server mini-HOWTO which describes how to use efax as
a print filter for outgoing faxes.
