Toshiba GD-1210 manual Mailbox Communication

Mailbox Communication

This function is used to communicate between Fax machines compatible with a mailbox function (ITU-T compatible). The owners of these Fax machines can input or retrieve the data of originals in the mailbox. There are 3 types of mailbox; confidential mailbox, bulletin board mailbox and multi-address relay mailbox. To perform mailbox communication, the mailboxes must be set in advance. Total 300 mailboxes can be set for the 3 types listed below, and an individual pass- word for each box can be set for security protection.

This equipment also supports the Inbound FAX routing by TSI function that designates a sender’s fax number for a mailbox number. “Forward Mailbox” setting on TopAccess makes this function available, and the received document is forwarded to the specified destination (file/ Email/e-Filing) according to the sender’s fax number. If a mailbox has been created as “Confi- dential”, “Bulletin Board” or “Relay”, the received document is not forwarded even when the mailbox number matches the sender’s fax number. For details, see the TopAccess Guide.

yConfidential mailbox:

Once the data of an original is retrieved from this box, this data will be deleted. If a new data is input in this box under the same box number where another data exists, the new data will be added to the existing data.

yBulletin board mailbox:

Even if the data of an original is retrieved from this box, this data will not be deleted. If a new data is input in this box under the same box number where another data exists, the new data will overwrite the existing data.

yMulti-address relay mailbox:

A Fax machine with mailbox function transmits a Fax specifying a certain mailbox as a relay mailbox, and then the relay station forwards the Fax to the destination previously registered in the relay mailbox. In this case, the Fax machine of the original sender is called a relay originator, the Fax machine which forwards the Fax is called a relay station and the Fax machine which receives the Fax at the last stage is called a relay destination. A relay station can send a report (relay destination transmission report) to a specified Fax machine involved in the multi-address relay transmission after completing the transmission. A relay station can also print out the Fax from a relay originator always or only when the relay transmission has failed.
