Mac Fax: Creating Fax Gateway Account Cover Pages
81342

You can configure the Microsoft Mail for AppleTalk Gateway to Fax to send a cover page with each fax transmission. You need to first create a cover page using any non-PostScript application that has printing capabilities.


 * 1) Leave the top 2 to 3 inches of the document blank because transmission information is placed at the top of the page when a cover page is used.
 * 2) In the Chooser, select MailSender.
 * 3) Print the document. When the MailSender print dialog opens, click the Save File radio button.
 * 4) When the "Save Image File As" dialog appears, click the Formats button and select "FAXGATE Cover Page" from the list of formats. Save the file and copy it to the master fax gateway server's hard disk where it will be safe from accidental deletion.
 * 5) At the Macintosh serving as the master fax gateway server, sign into Mail as the Network Manager.
 * 6) Choose Gateway Accounts from the Mail menu and click the Modify radio button.
 * 7) Select a gateway account.
 * 8) Click the Cover Page button and select any cover page file that you have previously created. Each gateway account can have a unique cover page assigned to it. Repeat Steps 7 and 8 to set the cover page for other gateway accounts.

Mac Fax: Fax Gateway Cover Pages and Mail Server Application
81346

When running the Microsoft Mail server as an application, the Mail for AppleTalk Networks Gateway to Fax does not allow you to make changes to cover page assignments. Changes to the cover page option are made in the Gateway Accounts screen and must be made at the server. Even when sitting at the server, you will receive the following error after clicking on the Cover Page button:

You are not allowed to assign cover pages from a remote machine

To make changes to the cover page option, bring the server up as an INIT, make the desired changes, change the server back to an application.

Mac Svr Wkst: Compatibility with A/UX
96253

Although the workstation of version 3.1 of Microsoft Mail for AppleTalk Networks is compatible with Apple's A/UX environment, the server is not compatible. Earlier versions of the Mail workstation are not compatible.

The only known problem with A/UX and the version 3.1 workstation is that the chime will only sound once on the arrival of new mail, even if set to 2 or 3 chimes.

Mac ARA: AppleLink Gateway Conflicts with ARA
96275

The communication program in the AppleLink gateway will not function correctly with AppleTalk Remote Access (ARA) version 1.0. If ARA is installed on the server with an AppleLink master gateway and the communication program in the AppleLink gateway tries to initiate a call, the following error message will occur:

Ramsdopen: -97

Mac GW: CNU Needs MultiFinder
97956

The Connection Name Utility (CNU) of the Microsoft Mail Connection for PC and AppleTalk Networks version 1.0x needs to run on a mail server using System 7 or System 6 with MultiFinder enabled. With System 6, operating with Finder only may cause errors.

Mac Wkst: Enclosed Documents Become Unlocked
101445
