Configuring the Repository Folder and RightFax Interface on the Sharp MFPs

19

RightFax phonebook groups are stored for each individual RightFax 
user ID and can be viewed using the FaxUtil client. To view a list of 
phonebook entries for a user, run FaxUtil as that user and select 

Tools > Phonebook

. This opens the 

Phonebook

 dialog box and a 

list of phonebook groups appears in the top list pane.

If the phonebook group does not exist for the RightFax user being 
used as the fax owner, the document will not transmit.

Caution  

When you send to a phonebook group, you will receive one 

notification (by whatever notification method you have set up, described 
on 

page 13

) for every recipient in the phonebook group. This may result 

in a large number of notifications for a single transmission event, but the 
notifications are designed to let you know the transmission status for 
each intended recipient.

Using SecureDocs and Certified Delivery

The SecureDocs feature lets users scan documents and send 
them to one or more e-mail addresses as encrypted PDF file 
attachments. The recipient must have the PDF’s password in order 
to view the document.

The Certified Delivery feature lets users scan documents and direct 
them to your organization’s Certified Delivery Web site. The 
recipient receives an e-mail message indicating that a document is 
available with a link to the Certified Delivery Web site. The link 
connects the user to the Web site where he can view all waiting 
documents.

Both SecureDocs and Certified Delivery must be installed and 
configured on your RightFax server for these features to work. For 
information on installing these RightFax features, see the RightFax 
Installation Guide and the RightFax SecureDocs Module Guide.

By default, all documents sent to e-mail addresses will be sent 
using SecureDocs, even if no document password is provided in 
the Metadata set. If you want to use the Certified Delivery feature, 
you must set this as the default send method in the RightFax MFP 
Module.

Note  

Setting Certified Delivery as the default send method in the 

RightFax MFP Module will only affect documents sent to e-mail 
addresses. Documents sent to fax numbers will transmit normally as 
faxes.
