T.37 Advanced Usage
Introduction
For individual faxes, you can use the commands below to override settings entered in the administrator
or user web interface. Many options for the use of email to fax (T.37) follow the Request For Comment
(RFC) standards provided by the IETF. We will briefly describe some of these options, but in-depth
descriptions are available at the IETF website (www.ietf.org
) where you will need to search for the
relevant RFC number to see the explanations.
Using T.37 for the sending of faxes involves entering one or more options in a specific format
(option=value) with multiple options divided by a forward slash (/). All options must be entered exactly
as shown or else they will not trigger the event, whereas the value statements are replaced by specific
values allowed by the command. The easiest way to understand this is to present a list of the options
and give an example of how it would be used below it. Capitalized OPTIONS must be entered as shown;
italicized values will be replaced by characters and/or numbers specific to the fax you are sending.
Options
FAX=number
[Required, all other settings are optional]
Where "number" is the fax number to dial.
Example:
FAX=555-1234@example.test
COVER-PAGE-ENABLED=true|false
Example:
FAX=5551234/COVER-PAGE-ENABLED=false@example.test
COVER-PAGE-NAME=name
Where "name" is the filename of the cover page on the FF240-IP.
Example:
FAX=5551234/COVER-PAGE-NAME=mts_template2.pdf@example.test
ATTN=name
Where "name" is the name of the recipient the fax is being sent to and will be filled in on the cover
page.
Example:
FAX=5551234/ATTN=John Smith/COVER-PAGE-ENABLED=true@example.test
ORG=name
"name" is the name of Organization the fax is being sent to and will be filled in on the cover page.
Example:
FAX=5551234/ORG=Multitech Systems@example.test
INLINE-COMMENTS=true|false
Inline comments specifies whether the message body is treated as cover page comments or not. By
default, the first inline text body part will be used as the cover page comments. This can be changed by
setting /INLINE-COMMENTS=false.
Example:
FAX=5551234/INLINE-COMMENTS=false@example.test
FAX-PRIORITY=0-5
The fax priority specifies the order of scheduling (0 is highest and 5 is lowest).
Example:
FAX=5551234/FAX-PRIORITY=5@example.test
RECEIPT=always|failure|never
Controls when an email receipt for the fax is sent to the sender. "always" means send an email receipt
for successful and failed faxes, "failure" means only send a receipt if the fax failed to send, and "never"
means not to send any receipt.
Example:
FAX=5551234/RECEIPT=failure@example.test
