  • email.server does not support dns names, only ip:port

SRFax Config (srfaxes.json)

• is an array of srfax configurations
• an example config is written if srfaxes.json does not exist
• the config should be laid out in a way that is self explanatory
• download_fmt supports PDF or TIF
• --write-config will not overwrite this file
