OKIFAX 5750/5950

How it Works
1
The client sends a message to the mail server using the

address format [email protected].

A client can be a computer or an Internet Fax.

2 The mail server makes an enquiry to the DNS server about

fax.abc.com

3 The DNS server replies to the mail server with the IP

address of fax.abc.com.

4 The mail server forwards the message to the Internet Fax.

5 The Internet Fax then forwards the message to an F-Code

fax machine with the telephone number of 123.

It is also possible for an e-mail client to communicate
directly with this machine. To do this, specify the IP address
of this Internet Fax instead of the e-mail client’s SMTP server
address. Specify a recipient using the above address format
and attach a TIFF file in a format supported by this Internet
Fax, and you can have the TIFF file forwarded by fax on
reception.

Please note that it may not be possible to establish a
connection between this Internet Fax and some types of e-
mail clients.
