Announce: fax2mail script update (includes hoodaheckcompatibility)

Thanks for the great feedback! We now have an updated fax2mail (version 2.0) for download (at www.generationd.com). Fixes include:

1. Improved detection of the number of fax pages
2. Handling of "!" character in the name (for those users of the "hoodaheck" module)
3. Correction of several syntax errors in the bash script.

For those of you new to faxing with asterisk, fax2mail is a script which is called by spandsp upon arrival of a fax. It will convert the image to PDF/EPS/TIF format, and email the fax to a user (just like voicemail), include numerous fax information, etc.

Cheers,
Michelle
