I've never done this but I think MS-MAPI might be a good solution.
Sure, it's not platform independent, since it will only work on NT,
but it is fax-gateway independent. MAPI is an interface to several
messaging systems (mail, RFC's, fax, etc.) regardless of what
kind of implementation is behind it.

    Hi guys,
    Just a quick question. I am wanting to send email from our Forte

    Here is code that we have in one of our applications to send an email. Hope
    this helps!
    anSMTPHandler : SMTPHandler = new(theMailServer='email.wyle.com');
    tdlist : array of textData = new ;
    tdlist.AppendRow(__EmailAddress);
    messageBody : Textdata = new ;

    messageBody.Concat('The following parts on this rfq are registerable but no
    registration number was provided:\n');

    messageBody.Concat(__EmailPartList).Concat('\n');
    subject : TextData = new(value='RFQ Without Registration Numbers');
    Sender : TextData = task.part.OperatingSystem.GetEnv('CCEmailFrom');
    If Sender <> NIL Then
    anSMTPHandler.SendMessage(tdlist,sender,subject,messageBody);

  • RE: (forte-users) appdist copy from VMS to NT question...

    Well, there are some graphic FTP clients for windows that allow
    you to get files from FTP-servers using simple drag and drop.
    Most of them even support the option of selecting a directory
    and dragging it, with all its subdirectories, to your local drive
    with a single mouse action.
    The only problem might be with binary vs. text files. The appdist
    directory has both filetypes. Getting text files as if they were
    binary files may cause problems. Getting binary files as if they
    were text certainly will cause problems. So, either get the
    whole tree binary and hope for the best. Or get each file indi-
    vidually and set the correct bin or asc setting. Or use a tool
    that is smart enough to see if a file is binary or text and hope
    it doesn't make any mistakes.

    G'day Folxs
    Does anyone here have a simple way to copy a whole appdist tree for myapp1
    say from VMS to NT? I have created a new environment on a NT box and want
    to
    copy down all our application distributions.
    eg:
    On OpenVMS machine vmsbox1 the directory tree and files
    vmsbox1::forte_root:[appdist.aenv_myapp_cl3...]*.*;
    should go to NT machine ntbox1
    [ntbox1] d:\temp\myapp\cl3\...
    Even just to d:\temp\aenv_myapp_cl3\... will do.
    ftp doesn't seem to do the trick here. Of cause I could write some routine
    to put/get file by file - but before I do all that I thought I ask around
    if
    it's already been done.
    Thanks,

  • Re: (forte-users) No response from Router partition

    Sounds like what we have been experiencing here, on Unix.
    According to Fort&eacute;, upgrading to 3M should resolve it. Unfortunately, we
    can't
    confirm it yet, as we are in the process of upgrading and testing.
    I believe this is documented as an "internal" Fort&eacute; bug report.
    Hope this hels.

    Hi All,
    One of the router partitions on NT server stops responding once in awhile. We can not get to it through escript or econsole and the only
    solution we have is to shutdown the ftexec using task manager and start
    the partition again. We don't see any error messages in the log except
    this line "LbRouter::AttachToRouter - Ignoring DOM version: -1 obj
    version: 0". Does anyone have any idea what this means? Is there any way
    to figure out the problem? We are using Forte 3L3. Thanks in advance.

    That will give you a better idea of what the actual problem is.

  • RE: (forte-users) send/receive mail

    Hi Nat,
    you have three possibilities to integrate MAPI to a Forte program:
    1. using mapi32.dll (simple MAPI) or mapix32.dll (MAPI). You must integrate
    this libraries using a C wrapper class (as described in "Integrating with
    External Systems").
    2. using OLE Active messaging library ( as described in 'Integrating with
    Windows and Macintosh")
    3. or implement POP3 using an ExternalConnection class.

    Hi,
    Unfortunatly, Forte does not provide SMTP and POP3 protocoles.
    But, you can use External connections to do it if you need.
    You can find a simple SMTP send mail sample code on
    http://perso.club-internet.fr/dnguyen/ . The receive should be as easy as the send.
    For MIME base 64 encoding and decoding, it should last one or two weeks of coding
    (if you need optimization).
    One advantage of coding this in Tool directly is the portability.
    In your case, on NT, you could also interface with MAPI using for instance the
    ActiveX interface.
    By that way, you will already have SMTP, POP3 and MIME.
    Hope this helps,

  • Re: Sending fax from MacPro through multi-function printer.

         I am running OS 10.6.8 on my MacPro (Model4, 1), to which is attached a Brother MFC-440CN (with fax capability) through a router.  I am able to print, but when I try send a fax I receive the message "NO FAX MODEMS WERE FOUND."  I can send and receive fax documents directly through the MFC. Why is the fax not available to the MacPro? How can I resolve the problem?
         Thanks for your help.

    Problem solved!  At the Brother website, in the FAQS area, under "How do I send a PC-Fax in Macintosh," I found the following Solution:
    Description of Solution 200000017785
    To send a PC Fax follow the steps listed below:
    1.  Create a document in a Macintosh application.
    2.  From the application click FILE => PRINT. The Printer dialog box appears.
    Mac OS X 10.5.x - 10.6.x Users: Click the disclosure triangle beside the Printer pop-up menu to display configuration options.
    3.  Choose SEND FAX from the pop-up menu.
    4.  Choose FACSIMILE from the Output pop-up menu.
    5. Enter a fax number in the Input Fax Number box, and then click PRINT to send the fax.
    NOTE: If you want to send a fax to more than one number, click ADD after entering the first fax number.  The destination fax numbers will be listed in Destination Fax Numbers field.
    I would assume that this solution may apply to most other MFCs (HP, etc.), depending on an applications software.

  • Problem sending Faxes from Change Order(IW32) in NW 2004s

    Hello Everyone,
    We have just recently upgraded our version of SAP from 4.6c and we have discovered an interesting issue when trying to fax shop papers from IW32.
    In 4.6c we had configured a output device in SPAD that would redirect the output to SCOT via SAPcomm to our Rightfax fax servers.  With the new version of SAP the functionality for creating an output device of type 'FAX' has been disabled since SAPConnect has replaced SAPComm.
    How we used to do this is we'd goto IW32, enter an order and choose the menu function Order/Print/Order you could then enter the device type and also the recipient's fax number and the country code.
    When we try this in the new system no fax is created, when we remove the device type (clear the box) we still do not create a fax output.  When we specify another device (i.e. printer etc) we get an error stating that this is not a Fax device and the request fails.
    Does anyone know of a way to correct this problem since our users would like to continue to fax shop papers from our system.
    Regards,
    James

    Juan,
    We are able to send faxes from SAP to our rightfax system without issues.  This is not the problem we are experiencing.
    The issue is when you try to fax something from IW32 via the option Print/Order/Print.  It requires a spool output device to be specified.
    Since you cannot create an output device of type FAX anymore and you cannot use another type of device type to send the fax we are trying to figure out how to get these printouts to be redirected to SAPConnect and SCOT.
    Regards,
    James

  • Unable to send fax from computer

    Hi,
    I'm unable to send faxes from my computer (e.g, from Word). I get a message: "The device is disconnected or powered off", which is not true.
    The printer is an HP  LaserJet 1536dnf MFP.
    The OS is Windows 7 Ultimate, 64-bit, with 8 GB RAM.
    I have updated to the latest firmware from the HP site, and have downloaded the latest appropriate driver package for this printer from there as well (hp_M1530_MFP_full_Solution_usb_n_w.exe)
    The installation goes normally, and there are no error messages.
    The printer is working fine. I am able to print and scan from the computer without problems. I am also able to fax directly from the printer without problems. The only problem is not being able to send a fax directly from the computer.
    For instance, in Word (the latest version), when I print to the HP fax printer (which has indeed been installed correctly on the computer), I get a message that the doc has been send to the printer. But no screen pops up letting me type a phone number, and after about 1 minute I get this error: 
    Have been on the phone for several hours to HP support, and although they did a complete uninstall, and reinstall, the problem persists.
    I also downloaded and ran this file from HP: HPLJ_M1530_Fax_IE_11_utility.exe, which is meant to resolve a very similar issue for people who have this Microsoft KB installed (KB2898785), which somehow interferes with the fax exactly as I have described. I do indeed have that Windows update installed. However, running the file did not solve the problem, and there seems to be no way of uninstalling that KB.
    So I am at a loss, and would appreciate any help, if anybody can think of anything.
    Many thanks
    Tim

    Hi @Tim613 ,
    I see by your post that you are unable to send a fax from the computer. I would like to help.
    Since you are able to print and scan from the computer, you don't have a communication issue. The printer will also send a fax, so it isn't a hardware issue. It sounds more like something possibly on the computer is blocking the fax communication.
    The Toolbox doesn't support Windows 7 64 bit, but you should still be able to fax through Third Party Software. (Word) Which you have already tried and it didn't work.
    I would disable all the start up programs and temporarily turn off the Antivirus Software to see if there is a program interfering in the back ground. How to use MSCONFIG . Click on the start up tab and click disable all.
    Try sending a fax again.
    Then you will have to go back and enable the startup programs and turn the Antivirus Software back on again.
    Let me know the outcome.
    Have a wonderful day!
    Thank You.

  • How do I set up the fax program so I can send faxes from my mac

    Do you have a fax machine or fax modem? If not, then you cannot fax over telephone lines, but you can subscribe to one of many eFax services.

  • Can't send faxes from my HP Officejet Pro 8615

    Hello. I cant send faxes from my HP Officejet 8615.

    Hello @Dee53,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I understand that you're experiencing issues when trying to send faxes from your HP Officejet Pro 8615 e-All-in-One Printer. I would like to assist you today with resolving this issue. However, in order for me to provide you with accurate support to resolve this issue with you I do need to clarify a few things.
    1. Are you using a dedicated fax line or is it shared with your phone?
    2. If the fax is shared with your phone, is there an answering machine or voice mail service on that line?
     If so, how many rings does it take your answering machine or voice mail to pick up on?
    3. Do you use distinctive ring?
    4. Are you using a DSL or VOIP phone line? If you're not sure you would have to ask your phone company.
    5. Are you getting an error message when trying to send a fax?
    6. Are you able to receive faxes?
    Once I have the answers to my questions above I will be more than happy to guide you to a solution. I look forward to hearing from you!

  • What software do I use to send FAXes from my IMAC?

    What software do I use to send FAXes from my IMAC?

    I'd recommend looking in the Mac App Store for fax apps. BTW do you have a modem or do you have an AIO printer with fax capability?

  • MFP M521dn Can't Send Faxes from PC

    When printing to the fax feature of the M521dn, the message in the fax status window that comes up says PRINTER BUSY and the fax is never sent.  The printer is not in use and has been reset before testing the feature in a controlled way.  The firmware version on the printer is dated 20140605.  Sending faxes from the printer itself (using the touchpad and console) works just fine.  It is only when attempting to print from a PC using the FAX device.
    Desktop O/S is Windows 7 Professional.

    Hi @mab5113,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    To get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since the HP LaserJet Pro M521 Multifunction Printer is a commercial product. You can do this at HP Enterprise Business Community.
    The support page for your product may be helpful in the meantime:
    HP Support Center.
    I hope this helps!

  • Faxing from Forte

    We have an application from which we'd like to send faxes. We would
    ideally like to send in the fax number, recipient info, and maybe some
    cover page text and have the fax go out automatically. Another requirement
    is that we'd need to be able to do this over a network since only the
    server will have a fax modem. I know that there are numerous fax software
    packages out there that act as printers (under windows) where we could then
    use the Forte printing facilities to send the fax. I'm not sure, however,
    how we would go about passing in the parameters and having the fax go out
    automatically. Usually a dialog box will come up allowing the user to
    enter the fax #, etc.
    Does anyone out there know of a good fax package that might support
    something like this (maybe using OLE?) or one that has an API that we might
    be able to hook into from Forte? If you have done this kind of thing
    before in any manner I would also be interested in that.
    Thanks,

    fax system is GammaLink. They supply various types of fax boards and
    development tool kits which can be called via from Forte via C API's. The
    vendor URL is:
    http://www.gammalink.com
    The fax clients containing the fax boards and GammaLink software can be
    deployed on a Forte node over the network. The fax boards generally expect
    to receive graphics in TIF3 graphics format, although other formats may be
    possible via conversion capabilities within the product.
    This may be overkill for what you are looking for, but it should be a good
    source to get you started in the area of requirements and reference information.
    Good luck, and please let me know if you require any follow-up information.
