Chapter 5 Internet Fax
Internet Relay Station
Sends Email received from the initial sending station to an end receiving station (a fax station
connected to the telephone line: Ex: Stockholm/Berlin/Rome) as a fax document.
If multiple end receiving stations are specified, the Email is broadcasted to them.
Each time a relay station completes a transmission, it transmits a Relayed Transmission Report
(Communication Journal) to the initial sending station to designate its Relayed transmission
request, and emails a Fax Relay log to the administrator’s computer at the relay station.
End Receiving Station(s)
On receiving a fax document from the relay station, the mail header and mail text will be printed on
the first page, and the file attachment (TIFF) on the next, and subsequent pages.
