Error while sending FAX using FM

Hi All,
I am trying to send fax using FM SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1. Fax number of format AANNNNNNNN(A-area code and N-Fax number) and passing country LAND field in receiver table AU.

If I try and send file as attachments from the tmp directory, then everything works ok, but if I try to send the same file from any other directory, then it doesn't work. Can anyone help? Is there something wrong with the code, I'm not aware of anything that would make it directory specfic. Permissions are the same on /tmp as the new directory /NRS/Data/SystemX which I'm trying to send the file from now.

well
if u see the end of ur mail it shows the attachment dir there in which u have specified the address..why don't u do a change there or better have some in parameteres in the procedure for it..that would help in choosing the attachment directory on users wish?
hope i am getting the problem right..if not kindly correct me in understanding the problem.
thanX.

How to send fax using java programming

i need to send files in my hard disk through fax using java programming.
i have found on the internet that it is possible to be implemented by using java.comm API and JTAPI. however, i don't know how...does anyone can tell me the details? also, as i know it will be a big project to send fax using such API. is that any other simple way to implement the fax function in java? thx a lot!

Send mail with no sender address using Javamail

I'm trying to send emails using javamail, it works fine but I would like to send emails with no sender address. When I don't set :
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress("[email protected]"));
or do just
message.setFrom()
I get my_user_name@my_machine_name as the sender address when i recieve the email.
I understand the security problems about sending emails without sender but i need to automate the sending of confirmation messages that recievers can't answer to.
Quentin.

I get a lot of e-mail newsletters that say at the bottom "Please do not reply to this, nobody will read your reply". What's wrong with that? Set up an address and automatically purge any messages sent to it on a regular basis.
Or if you want a different way to annoy people, use an address that doesn't exist on your server. Then people get a bounce message when they reply to it.
You might also want to evaluate commonly-used spam filters and see if they filter out messages that don't have from-addresses. No point sending people messages if they get filtered out.

Sending a message to fax using JavaMail

Hello all,
we are trying to create a system to send messages. The input will come from an Oracle 9i (9.0.2) database, our goal is to create email messages which can either be delivered to an email address or to a fax number.
The systems works if all addresses are regular email adresses, but we get the following message when using a fax number :javax.mail.internet.AddressException: Illegal route-addr in string ``fax:[email protected]''
I have already change the parse-method to parseHeader with the parseOption false, so that the addresses are not controlled against the standard. I expect the ':' (colon) in fax:012345678 is the cause of our problem, replacing it with a random character returns a 'normal' error message for a non-existing address.
I have included the log message with the exception, the sourcecode of our SendMailTest and the source of SendMail.
Is there any work around to this colon, so we can send faxes as well as emails.
Kind regards,
Nemata

How to setup SMTP server in PC so as to send mails using JavaMail

Hi,
From forums i got it cleared that we can use JavaMail to send emails. I also got two sample codes about getting it done. But in the code its asks address of the host of SMTP server. I dont have any SMTP server. But i am writing a Library Application in which an email must be sent to users automatically when thier books are in overdue.
Where can i get SMTP server to be installed on my PC so that i can use it send mails through Javamail API.
Thanks

Isnt there any way setup SMTP server on own pc?? I just want to send mails in my local area network.

Delivery Receipt After Sending Mail Using JavaMail ?

Hi Friends,
I have written an application using JavaMail which would be used to send mail
using my organisation's SMTP Server.I would like to include the following functionality in it.Just as
Microsoft's Outlook has an option to get Delivery Receipt of the mail and Read Receipt of the mail sent
(Provided the email Client supports it) i would like to have a similar option in my application to.I would like to of how i can do it using JavaMail.I heard that basically we need to set some SMTP properties which the Mail Transfer Agent would recognize and send us the Delivery and Read Receipts.But,i am not sure of what those properties.Can anyone help me regarding this ?

You might look into creating a custom header that provides a return reciept to the email address you specify. I'm not 100% sure that all mail servers support this but you might want to look into it as a solution.

It compiles fine but showing exceptions at run time.Please help me to remove these exceptions.I am new to this JavaMail and it is my first program of javamail.Please also tell me how to use smtp server.I am using MTNL 's internet connection having smtp.bol.net.in server.
exceptions are:
Here is exception
quote:

Did you find the JavaMail FAQ?
You should talk to your ISP to get the details for connecting to your server.
In this case I suspect your server wants you to make the connection on the
secure port. The FAQ has examples of how to do this for GMail and Yahoo
mail, which work similarly. By changing the host name, these same examples
will likely work for you.

Sending fax using java API

Hai,
There is a requirement in one of the projects i am currently working, to send fax from the application to any fax machine in the world. I am now assigned
the task of finding out how this can be done in java. I have been " googling " all day . All i could find are some vague comments on certain posts including this site:
1) This could be done using the javax comm package ( i could not find any detailed explanation as how it could be done or sample code)
2) Could be done by installing some certain software and using it.
By my requirement is to send fax from within my application , not any third party applications. I also cant use the online services which come as the search result
while i "googled".
So can sending faxes be done from a java application using the standard java packages or any extensions? Could any one point me to a sample implementation ?
Any pointers would be appreciated.
Thanking u in advance,
Martin Joseph

In order to send fax from a java application you would first have to have a fax server setup. Which would receive files from your application and send it. Now how you utilize it depends upon the implementation of the server. There could be an API made available to you or it could be as simple as dropping your files to a certain folder or ftping them to a certain location on the server itself from where it picks them up and faxes them. So in short the implementation is a function of your server choice and whether you have one already, decide to use an existing one or find one publicly available on the net.

Sending faxes using Mountain Lion

Is it possible to send faes directly from the computer using Mountain Lion.

You would have to buy a fax modem compatible with your computer in order to send faxes. I have a fax modem with my printer that I use when I need to send one.
You could do electronic faxes through a service, but I'm not familiar with those. They usually charge for that.

Sending Faxes using internal modem and DSL

I found that I can receive a fax, but I cannot send one. When I try and send one the internal modem tries to connect to the internet using "internet connect". It searches for a number to connect to the internet. Since I am using DSL now I don't have a phone number to dial into the internet. If I put my phone number in it calls me and gets a busy signal.
Can someone tell me how I should be configuring the internal modem?

From the Knowledge Base at
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh1797.html
Sending a fax
You can fax files directly from your computer to any fax machine or computer that is set up to receive faxes. If your computer has a modem that is connected to a phone line, it is automatically configured to send faxes.
Open the document you want to fax.
Choose File > Print.
Choose Fax PDF from the PDF pop-up menu.
Type the fax number of the user you want to receive your fax in the To field.
You can also choose users directly from Address Book by clicking the Address Book button to the right of the To field. Be sure you have a fax number listed for each user you choose in Address Book. For more information about using Address Book, see Address Book Help, available in the Help menu when Address Book is open.
If necessary, type the dialing prefix required for the phone system you're using in the Dialing Prefix field. (For example, if you need to dial a 9 to access an outside line, type 9 in the Dialing Prefix field.)
If you want to send a fax through a modem other than your computer's built-in modem, choose it from the Modem pop-up menu.
If you want to send a cover page with your fax, click the Use Cover Page checkbox and type a message in the Message field.
If you need to change any of the preset faxing options, choose the type of options you want to change from the Fax Cover Page pop-up menu. (To see options for the application you're using, choose the application from the pop-up menu.)
If necessary, select options for the type you chose. (For example, you can select the number of copies you want faxed if you chose Copies & Pages in step 8.)
Tip: If you have a combination of options that you frequently use when faxing a document, you can save it as a "preset." After choosing your options, choose Save As from the Presets pop-up menu and type a name for the set of options. If you want to use this set of options when you fax a document, choose its name from the Presets pop-up menu.
Click Fax.
The fax is sent as soon as your modem is available. (For example, if you're using your modem to connect to the Internet, the fax is sent after you disconnect from your Internet service provider.)
You may want to send your fax at a later time. For example, you may want to send it at night when telephone rates are lower. Just choose Scheduler from the Fax Cover Page pop-up menu, and enter the time. Make sure your computer is on, is not asleep, and is connected to your phone line at that time.

Faxing using JavaMail

Hi,
Our e-mail server will send faxes through our fax server if you write the address you're sending to in the form
[FAX:John Smith@02 1234 5678]
Unfortunately, when I write the line
InternetAddress toAddress = new InternetAddress("[FAX:John Smith@02 1234 5678]", false);
I get an error
javax.mail.internet.AddressException: Illegal address in string ''[FAX:John Smith@02 1234 5678]''
I thought of subclassing InternetAddress with my own FaxAddress class but InternetAddress's checkAddress method is 'private static void'.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Ian.

ok..so i was able to retain the entire TO address as it is....
/name=Test_Suuplier/Fax=91-111-111-1111/ <[email protected]>
....using below constructor....
InternetAddress(java.lang.String address,
java.lang.String personal,
java.lang.String charset)
but now i am getting below error message at the end when sending email.....
Exception in sending email. Exception javax.mail.internet.AddressException: Missing '<' in string ``"/name=Test_Suuplier/Fax=91-111-111-1111/ <[email protected]>" </name=Test_Suuplier/Fax=91-111-111-1111/ <[email protected]>>'' at position 130.
