Fax Automatically

[Dale]

Here's what I am trying to do:

An e-mail comes in to Outlook 98 in a NT 4.0
environment. When received,
I use the Rules Wizard in conjuction with CaPrint
to automatically print the
incoming e-mail. I can set the rule to print to
either the laser printer or the
Winfax printer.

What I would like to do is to have Outlook
automatically print to Winfax; which
is not the problem. The problem is that when it
does this is automatically opens
the fax window and asks where the fax should be
sent.

I'd like to know if there is any way to set up
Winfax so that be default it will
automatically upon receipt of a fax request go
ahead and fax it to a predetermined
fax number.

Can anyone help?

WinFax SE does not have that capability. If you are using WinFax Pro,
you would have to use the WinFax SDK that comes with WinFax to program
a custom action for WinFax that would then be called by your rule.

Hi,

I have written a program that polls an email box via SMTP and any mail it
finds it faxes to a specific number using WinFax. I wrote it in C++ and it
includes SMTP support (which you might be able to get from a third party or
maybe use MAPI from VB) and then sends the email to WinFax using the SDK API
(which you could do from VB as well).

If there was enough interest I could tidy the program up and sell it. Let me
know if you are interested.
