Fax Send files control all CopiaFacts outbound fax and e-mail operations, for fax-on-demand callbacks, fax mail delivery, broadcasts, and fax server transmissions. Supplied programs create FS files for all these purposes, but you can also write your own programs to create FS files, for which purpose they provide a kind of API for the CopiaFacts server.
Although the '.FS' extension remains in use for all files, these files are used not only for sending faxes, but also for all other outbound operations, including e-mail and voice broadcasts.
To initiate an outbound operation, the FS file is placed in the TOSEND subdirectory, or one of the subsidiary TOSENDx directories specified on the $request_dir command in the configuration file. After successful transmission, or after the specified number of transmission attempts, COPIAFACTS then moves the files to either the SENT or FAIL subdirectory as appropriate. The FS file also has a secondary purpose of recording data about the request and transmission, much of which is not available in the log file.
FS commands may also be placed in a $type fsfile infobox to cause an FS file to be written at run-time.
