Re: Routing SMTP mail to Domino on Windows

[rob@xxxxxxxxx]

1)  We upgraded from that older version of fax to Domino Fax for iSeries 
(this IS supported) because we were having so many problems and our CEO 
begged us to get off of Windows and on to the iSeries (gotta love that). 
We still have some Brooktrout boards in case you need backup.  Granted, 
Domino Fax for iSeries isn't flawless and the support is on a call back 
only.

2)  Are you trying to fax from your iSeries by sending email applications? 
 For example, fax a po by having your CL program do a SNDDST to your Fax 
for Domino and then have it fax out?  I think at this time you should look 
at a native fax solution.  Like Facsimile Support/400 or one of the third 
party products.  I think someone on one of the lists bought either Domino 
Fax for iSeries or Facsimile Support/400 and somehow got the one to do the 
function of both.  We just bought both and avoided the hoops.  By the way, 
you get the same IBM personnel for help on either product, and both call 
back only.

3)  I don't believe that our outbound email from SNDDST, SNDEMAIL, 
QTmmSendMail, etc go through any of our Domino servers, but instead go out 
directly.  We spoof a Domino address for the from address to avoid having 
the iSeries native support trying to handle incoming email.

Other than that, I can't help you.

Routing SMTP mail to Domino on Windows






Good day:

We are running Domino on the Windows platform. One of the Domino servers 
is also an outbound Fax server (using a no longer supported product, 
Domino Fax Server). We would like to have mail on the iSeries to go to one 

of our Domino servers for routing to the internet, internally, and also to 

the fax server. I see no reason why this couldn't happen. Except that the 
Fax Server (and our Domino Mail Router) expects to see messages in the 
format:
"recipient name@fax number@fax" (example: Joe Smith@1234567890@fax).

I have allowed the iSeries to relay mail off of our server, and we will 
test simple internet mail using this. I have no doubt that this will work. 

But the fax addressing is another story, in my mind. Will I be able to 
have a program on the iSeries send mail using that address scheme, out of 
the iSeries and over to the Domino mail server? Or will it choke on that 
kind of address?

Is there anything else I should know or a Redbook that will help?

Thanks.

Gregg
