c. Enter SMTP parameters as required by your email system.
d. Send a Test Email to the defined administrator and check to see it was delivered to the
administrator's inbox (presumably an email account on the local network). If it was delivered
successfully, your SMTP server is relaying emails generated by the FaxFinder to local email
recipients.
8. Sending a Test Fax from Fax Machine to FaxFinder
a. If you are using a PBX, confirm the modem settings. Click Fax Configuration | Modem to view or
edit Modem Configuration settings.
b. Click Inbound Routing and confirm where the fax will be routed. If you do not change the
default settings, the Administrator email address will receive any incoming faxes.
c. Use a conventional fax machine to send a fax to the FaxFinder's fax number.
d. Verify that the FaxFinder received the fax message and then check the Administrator's email
inbox to see if it was delivered. To verify that FaxFinder received the fax, click Status & Logs and
then click:
Fax Status to see faxes currently in progress.
●
Inbound Fax Log to see Faxes that have been delivered. Click the Details link to view a pop-
●
up window showing Delivery and Modem Details.
If the email is not delivered within five minutes, refer to Troubleshooting,
e. Verify that you can open the fax in PDF viewer, such as Adobe Reader. If you configured
FaxFinder to deliver faxes as TIFF files, you can use the Multi-Tech TIFF viewer or a graphic file
viewer. In your email program, double-click the file attached to the email to open it in either a
PDF or TIFF viewer.
9. Adding System Users and Fax Contacts
Multi-Tech recommends adding system users and global fax contacts into FaxFinder before installing
the FaxFinder Fax Client software on a user's workstation. Users can have their own personal
contacts in addition to the Global Contact Database. The FaxFinder Client software automatically
downloads fax contacts from the FaxFinder Server. The FaxFinder Client keeps a copy of the contact
information locally and checks for changes when the software is used.
