This package is used to send faxes to emails.

Installation

Debian

apt-get install mime-construct

Centos/Fedora

cd /usr/src
wget http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/R/RO/ROSCH/mime-construct-1.9.tar.gz
tar xzvf mime-construct-1.9.tar.gz
cd /usr/src/mime-construct-1.9
perl Makefile.PL
make install 

Testing

Program installed

Write in bash to test:

mime-construct

You should see:

mime-construct: no recipients specified

If you see something else - troubleshoot.

Simple email sending

mime-construct --to "your@mail.com" --subject 'hi there' --string "test"

Email with attachment

/usr/bin/mime-construct --header 'Sender: MOR_FAX@TEST.COM' --header 'From: MOR_FAX@TEST.COM' --to your@mail.com --subject 'Email test' --file-attach /var/spool/asterisk/faxes/fax_test.pdf

Errors

Can't locate Proc/WaitStat.pm in @INC

This happens for Centos/Fedora. Fix:

perl -MCPAN -e "install Proc::WaitStat"

Then press ENTER half a million times (28 actually) and select continent/country when it asks.

Can't locate MIME/Types.pm in @INC

perl -MCPAN -e "install MIME::Types"
