4.4 - Forwarding received E-mail and fax messages

You can forward received E-mail or standard fax messages to another E-mail address or fax machine.
Received messages can be forwarded via E-mail to a computer or Internet fax. They can also be
forwarded via standard phone lines to another machine. The setting can be enabled using the web
browsers or through the machine front panel.

4.5 - Relay broadcasting

This function allows the Brother machine to receive a document over the Internet, and then relay it to
other fax machines through conventional telephone lines. If you wish to use your machine as a relay
broadcast device, you must specify the domain name that you trust at the machine, in other words, the
portion of the domain after the "@" sign. A trusted domain refers to the E-mail address. For example, if
the other party's address is bob@brother.com, then we identify the domain as brother.com. If the E-mail
address is jack@brother.co.uk, then we identify the domain as brother.co.uk. Use care in selecting a
trusted domain since any user on a trusted domain will be able to send a relay broadcast. You can
register up to 10 domain names can support the relay of a document up to a maximum of 48 fax machines
through conventional telephone lines.
Relay broadcast from a machine
In this example, your machine has an E-mail address of FAX@brother.com, you wish to send a document
from this machine to another machine in England with an E-mail address of UKFAX@brother.co.uk, this
machine will then forward the document to a standard fax machine using a conventional telephone line. If
your E-mail address is FAX@brother.com, you must configure a trusted domain name of brother.com on
the machine in England that will broadcast the document to the conventional fax machine. If you do not
enter the domain name information, then the machine in the middle (the machine that will broadcast the
document) will not trust any internet jobs that it receives from the machine in the @brother.com domain.
After the trusted domain is set you can send the document from your machine [I.E. FAX@brother.com] by
entering the E-mail address of the machine [I.E. UKFAX@brother.co.uk] that will forward the document
followed by the phone number of the fax that will receive the document. The following is an example of
how to enter the E-mail address and phone number
