Mail Server

Most of the time, the DNS server configuration explained in the DNS Server section will allow you to use the e-mail-to- FAX relay service.

The DNS server configuration is not always used.

Some mail servers are configured to process all mail addressed to hosts belonging to their domain as mail to themselves. If mail server mail.abc.com has been set up in this way, it will regard mail to xxxx@fax.abc.com as mail to one of its users and will not forward it to your fax machine.

To prevent this, configure the mail server so it does not process mail addressed to host fax.abc.com.

The example assumes that

The OS of mail.abc.com is FreeBSD.

The mail server is sendmail.

Configuration file sendmail.cf is generated using utility “ CF.”

You will have to edit sendmail.cf directly if no

utility of this kind is available. For help, see Konica's Web sit at www.konicabt.com and click Support.

To configure the mail server, you will

1insert strings into sendmail.def

2 add strings specifying email-to-FAX relay 3 create a new sendmail.cf

4 overwrite the original sendmail.cf

5 restart the mail server

1 Insert the following strings to file sendmail.def.

………

ACCEPT_LOWER=yes

………

LOWER_MATCH_STYLE=!lw-file

………

!ACCEPT, etc. tells the server to receive mail to hosts located within its domain.

LOWER, etc. tells the server to receive mail to hosts located within its domain, EXCEPT mail to hosts listed in sendmail.lw.

2Add a string (specifying e-mail-to-FAX relay) to /etc/sendmail.lw.
