Here is a sample fax file (MERGE.TXT) we could send:
##MERGE_ENABLE
%%Internal_Address%%
%%Sa l u t a t i o n %%:
Just wanted to say 'Hello.'
Let me know how things are going with you.
Best, Bill.
Let us say, we send this with the following command:
$ FAX SEND MERGE.TXT / LOOKUP=CITY="Los Angeles"
Jane Jones now gets this fax:
Attn: Jane Jones, Purchasing Dept.
Dear Ms. Jones:
Just wanted to say 'Hello.'
Let me know how things are going with you.
Best, Bill.
Fred Smith gets:
Mail stop 333
Dear Mr. Smith:
Just wanted to say 'Hello.'
Let me know how things are going with you.
Best, Bill.
Please note the # # MERGE_ENABLE directive in the MERGE.TXT file. This is to ensure that the merge
feature is enabled.
3.12 Merging From The Command Line
If you want to send the above fax to someone who is not in your lookup file, you can of course add that
person to the lookup file, but in case you do not want to do that, there is another way:
$ FAX SEN D MERGE.TXT / N UMBER= 1(213)5678900 -
$- / MERGE=(internal_address, "Buying Department", -
$- salutation, "Dear Tim Mooney")
This sends the following fax to 1(213)567-8900:
Buying Department
Dear Tim Mooney:
Just wanted to say 'Hello.'
Let me know how things are going with you.
Best, Bill.
