Configuring the fax server
The server-based fax service integrated on the applications card converts
incoming messages into PDF files and sends them to the recipient as an e-
mail attachment. When outgoing PDF files in e-mail attachments are con-
verted into fax messages. This section deals only with the configuration of
the fax server. To configure the entire fax service, you need additional con-
figuration steps.
Routing of incoming fax messages
DDI numbers for receiving external fax messages are monitored directly by
the fax server and are not linked with a call distribution element. The fax
server converts fax messages of the type Group3 fax into an e-mail with at-
tachment and sends it to the destination user. Use of the fax service is subject
to fax licences.

you must replace

Fax-Client-Setup32.exe /v“REG_ADDREXTFAXPRE-
FIX=\”[SMTP:\” REG_ADDREXTFAXPOST-
FIX=\”@fax.local]\””
2. Check the registry input. This should be as follows, with the new domain
name in place of
fax.local
:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFT-
WARE\Wow6432Node\Ferrari\fomclient\Out-
look\Addin] "AddrExtFaxPostfix"="@fax.local"
