Problem with .doc files on mail2fax gateway (Postfix/Hylafax) 1

[Sphera]

Hi there, here is my problem:

I installed Postfix v2.3.3 and Hylafax v4.4.4 on centOS v5.3

Set up both (after long research on the net) to work as an e-mail->fax gateway.

Until i send mail with images or .pdf attachments, hylafax works fine, decoding mails, handling body and attachment and paginating them correctly, but not when it comes to Word .doc files, that cant be handled/converted.

Does someone know a solution? I searched without success.

Thanks for reading this and best regards

We use Biscom Fax and it requires us to have those apps on the server to be able to convert them to faxes. May need to install Adobe/Word/Excel Readers.

HylaFAX's email-to-fax gateway application, supports plain text and Postscript attachments by default.

Have a look a TypeRules:
