To send the Internet Fax and Email documents from this equipment, and receiving the Internet
Faxes from the Internet, you must configure the DNS server and mail servers properly.
Tips for configuring the DNS server and mail servers for this equipment features are described
in the following sections:

Tips of Setting up the DNS and Mail Servers for Email

The Email transmission from this equipment works same as sending an Email message from a
client computer. To do this, you configure the DNS servers and mail servers.
Because the Email is one way transmission forwarding to the Internet, only the SMTP server is
required for the transmission. To enable sending a Scan to Email document to the Internet, the
DNS server should be configured to enable accessing the Internet using the DNS service.

Tips of Setting up the DNS and Mail Servers for Internet Fax

The Internet Fax transmission enables sending an Internet Fax and receiving an Internet Fax
from other Internet Fax devices.
Because the Internet Fax transmission is same as the Email transmission, you are ready to use
this feature if you have already configured the Email system in your network.
In order to configure the Email system, you must have the DNS, SMTP, and POP3 servers.
In the DNS server, you must additionally create the MX record of the server that the SMTP
server is activated (i.e. "mxhost.ifax.com"), and the host name of the server to add the host name
of the SMTP server (i.e. "mxhost"). This enables to receive all Emails that are sent to
"@ifax.com" to the SMTP server and stored in the mailboxes. Then this equipment requests to
the POP3 server to retrieve new Internet Faxes from the mailbox.

Tips of Setting up the DNS and Mail Servers for Offramp Gateway

When you enable the Offramp Gateway transmission, this equipment must be configured to
receive Emails in the SMTP transmission.
However this equipment does not have full SMTP server functionality so it cannot retrieve
Emails from the Internet by itself. For this equipment to receive Emails in SMTP transmission
from the Internet, the Emails must be retrieved by the another SMTP server first and then routed
to this equipment.
In order to enable the transmission, you must additionally create the MX record of the server that
the SMTP server is activated (i.e. "mxhost.ifax.com"), and the host name of the server to add the
host name of the SMTP server (i.e. "mxhost"). In addition, create the host name of this equip-
ment (i.e. "mfp00c67861"). Then, you must configure the SMTP server to route Emails, whose
domain name is "mfp00c67861.ifax.com," to this equipment so that this equipment can receive
Emails using the SMTP protocol.
