GFI FAXmaker - an overview Introduction to GFI FAXmaker GFI FAXmaker is a fax server that allows you to send and receive faxes via your email infrastructure. Its email integration is unparalleled, resulting in minimal administration overhead and user training. GFI FAXmaker for Exchange/SMTP integrates with Microsoft Exchange Server 2000/2003/5.5, Lotus Notes and with most popular SMTP/POP3 Mail servers. GFI FAXmaker consists of: • A FAX Server service which handles the sending and rece

Figure 1 - GFI FAXmaker installed on the Exchange 2000/2003 server If you install GFI FAXmaker on the Exchange Server machine, GFI FAXmaker will install a standard Exchange SMTP connector and a sink (a program that captures particular messages at mail server level). No further configuration will be needed. The connector will forward all fax messages to GFI FAXmaker via the sink.

Then it will mail back a delivery report to the user. The same principle is applied to SMS messages. Installing GFI FAXmaker on a separate machine leaves Microsoft Exchange Server completely standard – no changes to active directory are made and no custom software will be running on your Exchange server. How it works from the client All faxes sent by users from the FAXmaker Fax Message form or the New Message form of Microsoft Outlook are sent via Microsoft Outlook using the MAPI for

How it works from the client All faxes sent by users from the FAXmaker Fax Message form are sent via Microsoft Outlook using the SMTP format number@faxmaker.com. If the user wants to send a fax using the New Message form of Microsoft Outlook, the user has to address the email to number@faxmaker.com. Exchange 5.5 is then configured to forward mails sent to the faxmaker.com domain to the GFI FAXmaker fax server via SMTP. How GFI FAXmaker works with Lotus Notes/Domino If you have Lotus

Figure 5 - GFI FAXmaker installed on a separate machine If using Active Directory, you must ensure that the e-mail address of each GFI FAXmaker user has been entered in Active Directory.

How GFI FAXmaker works with multiple mail servers Figure 6 - GFI FAXmaker with multiple mail servers If you have a large network with multiple mail servers independent of what mail server they are running, you can configure your mail servers to forward faxes from all mail servers via SMTP (using the same methods as described above for each type of mail server). This allows you to provide fax services to users on several mail servers with a single GFI FAXmaker server. How GFI FAXmake

The GFI FAXmaker fax server receives the faxes via SMTP and using a sink captures the fax and converts it to fax format and faxes it out. The same principle is applied to SMS messages. Delivery reports and inbound faxes will be forwarded to the user’s email address at the ISP mail server. Because of the small size of faxes files and relatively small amount of email traffic created by GFI FAXmaker, this will not pose a significant overhead on your internet link. How it works from the cli

Installing the fax devices Which fax devices to use with GFI FAXmaker? Although GFI FAXmaker can use many fax devices, including modems, we strongly recommend investing in a professional fax server device such as a Brooktrout TR 114, TR 1034 or Trufax fax board, an EICON DIVA PRO/SERVER ISDN fax card or an AVM B1 ISDN fax card. These devices are far superior to a modem or multi-port modem in terms of reliability and transmission speed. Modems can be unreliable, requiring regular reset
