[Freeswitch-users] originate command to send fax only after tone detected

[Bipin Patel]

Well the python script checks gmail and there is no local mail server and 
I'm trying to keep it as simple as possible, would it be possible to use 
originate command to dial an extension in the dial plan where I could try 
and make call camping work. I just recently started using the originate 
command so have not much of an idea on how I can make it dial an extension 
in the dial plan where it can also feed the fax number to dial along 
probably using variables.
Is it possible to originate to an extension called send_fax with condition 
to match dialed number as fax in the default dial plan?
