When sending faxes, you can configure E-mail Delivery Receipts Outgoing Routing Method to send e-mail receipts to the predefined e-mail address(es), to confirm whether the fax has been sent correctly. Delivery notification receipts provide users with information about the success or failure of their sent faxes. Note that this functionality is completely independent from the similar function, which is used together with Mail to Fax, see Delivery notification to user e-mail address option in the Delivery Receipts to user e-mail address (Mail to Fax) chapter of this user manual. The notification to e-mail is sent regardless of the method of creating a fax. Depending on the recipient's fax number, the name of the computer user account who submitted the fax job, and the success or failure of sending the fax, delivery receipt can be sent to different e-mail addresses.
The behavior is defined by the so-called rules. Fax Voip FSP always checks E-mail Delivery Receipts rules, starting with the rule # 1. The receipt will be sent according to the first rule, which satisfies the specified conditions. All other rules are ignored. For example, if rule # 1 applies for all outgoing faxes ('Fax Number' = .*; 'Account' = .*; 'OK' = yes; 'Failed' = yes), then other rules # 2, # 3, etc. applied to outgoing faxes never be able to work under any conditions.
Every rule can be enabled or disabled. If the rule is disabled, Fax Voip FSP takes this rule into account (as in the case of enabled) but does not send delivery receipt to the specified e-mail addresses. This can be used to temporarily stop sending receipts for specified recipient's fax number or fax account.
To use E-mail Delivery Receipts functionality, you must:
The delivery receipt can be sent to one or more e-mail recipients. To, CC and BCC e-mail fields can be used. A copy of the sent fax can be attached to the e-mail message in TIFF, PDF or SFF format.
The maximum supported number of E-mail Delivery Receipts rules is specified by the current license. The rules that can not be used in the current configuration of the program are always highlighted in red and ignored.
