Server Installation Multi-Tech FaxFinder Quick Start

7. Setting Up the Mail Server

The FaxFinder uses a mail server to send fax log reports, by

email, to the administrator. An email is also sent to the

administrator each time the FaxFinder is powered up. In all

cases, you must specify the address of the mail server and the

email address of the administrator. Some email servers require

authentication before allowing the FaxFinder access. In these

cases, the FaxFinder unit must be assigned a Server User ID

and a password. If the mail server does not require

authentication, the related SMTP Configuration fields (“SMTP

Server User ID,” “SMTP Password,” and “Retype SMTP

Password”) must be left blank.

a. In the FaxFinder Administration screen, go to the SMTP

Configuration fields.

b. Fill in the network IP address or domain name of your mail

server.

c. Enter the email address of the administrator (the party that

you want to receive fax log reports).
