NET SatisFAXtion Email Gateway Installation Guide — Page 2

Before installing, if you are going to use SMTP for outbound faxing (email to fax), you must install the virtual SMTP Server

service first. If you are going to use POP3, skip to section 1.1.

1.0 - Install Microsoft Virtual SMTP Server

This varies depending on Operating System.

XP and 2003

Add or Remove Programs > Add/Remove Windows Components. Double click Application Server > double-click IIS > check

the box for SMTP Service.

2008 and 2008 R2

Administrative Tools > Server Manager > Features. Click Add Features, and check the SMTP Server.

Windows 7

Windows 7 does not include SMTP Service so it cannot receive emails via SMTP. POP3 must be used.
In neither case do you want to install all of IIS, since the web server will default to use port 80, conflicting with NET

SatisFAXtion web server. This will make NET SatisFAXtion fail to load.

Upgrade Path

Note: There is not an upgrade path from the current 8.6x and older email gateways. Make sure you gather the information from

the current email gateway from your server’s start menu - Programs - NET SatisFAXtion - SMTP or POP3 Email Gateway Setup.

You should un-install the previous email gateway before installing the 9.0x email gateway.

Configure Microsoft Virtual SMTP Server

Administrative Tools > Internet Information Servers (IIS) 6.0 Manager

Under Domains, right click on and rename the domain name to match the fax domain (for example fax.example.com).
