-----------------------------------------------------------------
What is FAXRcvd?
-----------------------------------------------------------------
FAXRcvd is a program that creates a *.MSG with a FileAttach
attribute set pointing to a recently received FAX. The message
also contains the information within BGFAX's FAXIN.LOG and the
FLAGS FAX are attached as well. This is the foundation for which
FrontDoor's(FD) editor, FM uses to identify FAXes.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
What do you need to make FAXRcvd work?
-----------------------------------------------------------------
You'll need a copy of FD 2.20* or greater, a copy of BGFAX
1.30 or greater, a FAX modem, and of course, a computer capable
of running this software.
I won't explain how to setup BGFAX or FD as those are covered
in their respective documetation.
Additionally, though, you need to specify FD's environment
variable, like so:
SET FD=C:\FD
FAXRcvd tries to find this variable and uses it to find
FD's SETUP.FD for information on BGFAX's directorys and your
NetMail directory. If FAXRcvd can't find FD's environment
variable you can still use FAXRcvd, but with some command line
switches I've encorperated into FAXRcvd.
Called from a batch file in would be something like this:
:BGFAX
BGFAX /FCO e:\fax\bgfax\receive 1 Z
if errorlevel 4 goto FAXRCVD
goto START
:FAXRCVD
FAXRCVD
REM FAXRCVD -d -be:\fax\bgfax -fe:\fax\bgfax\receive -ne:\mailer\netmail
goto START

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Are there any command line options?
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Sure! The following options are used with FAXRcvd:
? This will get you the help screen explaining all the
options available.
h Same as above, the help screen.
n The use of this option defines the NetMail directory
you wish to use, instead of the one in SETUP.FD.
b This one defines where BGFAX's directory is located
so that FAXRcvd can get the information from
FAXIN.LOG.
f Choosing this option defines the directory of where
your received FAXes are stored. This is used as part
of the subject line for determining where the FAX is.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Error Levels:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The following are ErrorLevels produced by FAXRcvd:
0 - Program exited ok; no errors encountered.
1 - Syntax Error.
2 - FD environment variable missing and all directories
were not specified.
3 - FAXIN.LOG file not found.
4 - Unable to create *.MSG file.

FAXRcvd refers to the program file and this documentation.
I do not claim that FAXRcvd will work at all. In fact, it might
not. I did take the time to check to see if it worked for me,
but everyone has their own environment to work with. I won't be
liable for anything that may happen directly or indirectly because
you used FAXRcvd. If it works, it's your fault, if it doesn't it
is still your fault. If you use FAXRcvd, then you take the risk,
I will not be liable.
I don't want anything for this utility. I wrote it for myself.
But if you wish to provide me with something for my efforts I
suggest the next time you see me, you buy me a beer(I love the
Imported types<g>).
If you contact me with a bug, I will certainly look into it.
I'm certain everyones setup's aren't like mine, so it goes without
saying, there may be some problems. A good suggestion is to make
a backup copy of your SETUP.FD and stash it, just in case FAXRcvd
trashes the one you are using.
