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.
