Cliff, Thanks for taking the time to offer help, I apologize for not seeing your note a long time ago. Unfortunately, there are many of our clients that prefer fax transmissions over e-mail. The only reason that for this that makes any sense is that a successful fax transmission or an incomplete fax transmission can be processed with a log entry so that there is proof of a successful fax. Obviously this can be done via a return receipt in e-mail but the receiver of the e-mail may not elect to do a return receipt which means a log entry of receipt is not 100%. Also, there are just still a bunch of clients that communicate via fax and not e-mail, as much as I would prefer e-mail. -- Greg Ennis PoMec Corporation www.PoMec.Net -----Original Message----- From: Cliff Pratt <enkiduonthenet at gmail.com> Reply-to: CentOS mailing list <centos at centos.org> To: CentOS mailing list <centos at centos.org> Subject: Re: [CentOS] ghostscript-8.70-14.el5_8.1.x86_64 & hylafax+ 5.5.3 Date: Tue, 6 Aug 2013 12:22:23 +1200 Greg, I haven't sent a fax in ages, so my suggestion would be to take a step back and see if you still need to use fax. You may still have a need for it, but I'm just suggesting that you think about it! Cheers, Cliff On Tue, Aug 6, 2013 at 10:19 AM, Gregory P.
