Change Fax2Email Sent from / Signature Info

Posted by stephenkkaye on Wed, 03/14/2012

Can anyone share with us how to change the data that is inlcuded in the fax / voicemail to email subject and signatures?

By default it says Thanks, Thirdlane and things like that.

I looked at this folder and open each script, I didn't find any place to personalize the from/subject/messege,
can you point which is the right file that should be modified?
can it be different for each language according the customer preferences?

Ophirr,

It is in /usr/local/sbin in a file named fax2pdf.sh

I doubt it can be changed for each customer, but I am not sure.

Hi ophirr

ssh into the server look into the /etc/asterisk directory inside the the file voicemail.conf halfway down emailbody = and the message you want to change

This may be the wrong way and possibly the wrong answer. But I went into /etc/asterisk and I changed the voicemail.conf file to reflect the email subject and FROM portion. It works fine, but I am unsure if this will be overwritten during an upgrade or patch.

I did as follows:

; Change the From: string
;fromstring=The 1com PBX

but I still don't get it as the from in the messeges, I get "Asterisk PBX" instead.
