Scalix Forums

Hi,

we want to implement the Faxserver Papageno from Vipcomag. When you want to send a fax via Outlook you type the fax address in send field like this: [FAX:027321111]. Now scalix have to convert this address to this format: 027321111/FAX@fax.intern. After this scalix should transfer this address to sendmail and sendmail to the faxserver.

My question: How I have to configure scalix to convert [FAX:027321111] to this format: 027321111/FAX@fax.intern.

Thanks for help!!!!

Hi Rudi,

you will need to add the fax address to the SYSTEM addressbook to prevent Scalix from massaging the address. Unfortunately, there is now way to free-form the address in the address field and send a fax to a number that is not stored in the addressbook. This is pretty fundamental in Scalix and when I talked to one of the developers about it he explained this would not be an easy to change behavior. :-(

I would suggest to look at implementing a second instance of sendmail and configuring the Papageno client to send SMTP to that instance.

Cheers,

Sascha.
