Now this is a nice, short section. Once you have configured CapiSuite, the scripts and started CapiSuite successfully, there's nothing more you have to do. You'll get your mails as described in Section , “How the scripts work” and that's it. You only have to setup your mail program to receive local mails. Enjoy! :-)
To do a remote inquiry, please enter your PIN (see Section , “The user sections”) while the announcement of the answering machine is played. After some seconds you will get a "voice menu" telling you how to record your own announcement for your answering machine or how to playback the received calls.
The default scripts for CapiSuite also include a commandline tool for sending faxes called capisuitefax.
capisuitefax will be called with some parameters telling it which file to send (it currently only supports PostScript files) and to which number. It will then enqueue the job converted to the right format into the send queue from which it's collected by another CapiSuite script and sent to the destination. If the sending was completed successfully or failed finally after trying for some time, the according user will get an email telling him/her what has happened.
The following options are recognized by capisuitefax:
capisuitefax [-q] [-n] [-u user] [-A adr] [-S subj] -d number file1 [file2 ...]
capisuitefax [-q] -a id
capisuitefax -h
capisuitefax -l
Abort the job with the given id. To get a job id, use the -l option.
The addressee of the fax. This option is (currently) only for informational purposes and will be quoted in the sent status mail.
The number which should be called (destination of the fax)
Show a short commandline help
Shows the jobs which are currently in the send queue.
Don't use the configured dial prefix for this job. Useful for internal jobs.
Be quiet, don't output informational messages
A subject for the fax. This option is (currently) only for informational purposes and will be quoted in the sent status mail.
Send fax as another user. Only allowed if capisuitefax is called as user root. This is mainly helpful for realizing extensions to e.g. do network faxing.
One or more PostScript files to send to this destination. More than one PostScript file will produce several separate fax jobs.
