2.7 Sending Faxes Using VMS Mail
Here is a way you can send a fax from within VMS Mail:
$ MAIL
MAIL> SEN D TESTFAX.1
To: FAX%1-555-123-4567
Subj: Sending File TESTFAX.1
MAIL>
At the To: prompt, enter FAX% followed by the fax phone number, without any spaces between them.
2.7.1 Using Com puFax Qualifiers w it h VMS Mail
To include qualifiers with a fax sent from VMS Mail, enter the qualifiers after the fax phone number. Enclose
the fax phone number and qualifiers within quotation marks.
For example:
MAIL> SEN D TESTFAX.1
To: FAX%"1-818-248-525 / AFTER= TOMORROW"
Subj: Test Fax Held Until N ext Day
MAIL>
The / AFTER= TOMORROW qualifier tells CompuFax to hold the fax and not send it until the following
day.
2.7.2 Em bedding Num bers in VMS Mail
It is not necessary to enter the fax phone number when faxing a file using VMS MAIL. The fax number may
be embedded within the file and at the To: prompt simply enter the FAX% with a "null string" (two
quotation marks.)
Use the second file you created for the next example:
MAIL> SEN D TESTFAX.2
To: FAX%""
Subj: Using Embedded Phone N umbers
MAIL>
Or, with a qualifier only:
MAIL> SEN D TESTFAX.2
To: FAX%"/ AFTER= TOMORROW"
Subj: Using Qualifiers With Embedded N umbers
MAIL>
Note: If you send a fax message via VMS Mail, the resulting message will resemble a typical
VMS Mail message, as shown in the example below:
