Using Internet Fax Functions

88

There are two methods of receiving e-
mail: Auto Mail Reception and Manu-
al Mail Reception.

❒ Documents sent from computers

as e-mail attachments cannot be re-
ceived. Senders receive an Error
Mail Notification if their e-mail
contains attachments. You can se-
lect whether or not the machine
sends this message with user pa-
rameters. See p.166 “User Parame-
ters” (switch 16, bit 3). However,
TIFF-F documents created by the
Saving function of LAN-Fax Driv-
er can be received.

❒ With user parameters, you can

have the machine retain incoming
mail or delete it from the POP serv-
er. See p.166 “User Parameters”
(switch 16; bit 1, 0).

❒ With user parameters, you can

have the machine return the ac-
knowledgment of mail to the send-
er. See p.166 “User Parameters”
(switch 17, bit 2).

When this function is turned on, NIC
FAX periodically checks the e-mail
server for incoming e-mail and down-
loads it as necessary. You can set this
function to "On" or "Off" by following
p.42 “Auto Mail RX (Auto Mail Re-
ception)” of the "Network" settings,
or by assigning the Auto Mail Recep-
tion function to a user function key
and specifying "On" or "Off".

The interval between checks is re-
ferred to as Mail RX Interval (Mail Re-
ception Interval). You can specify the
interval to any value between 1 and
60 minutes, and can also force NIC
FAX to check for incoming e-mail by
pressing the user function key as-
signed to the Mail Reception function
or the 

{{{{Job Information}}}} key. See p.88

“Manual Mail Reception”.
You can also configure this feature to
work in conjunction with the Night
Timer so that Auto Mail Reception
does not occur at times when NIC
FAX is saving energy. See p.166 “User
Parameters”(switch 16, bit 4), and
Chapter 7 "Energy Save Timer", Ad-
vanced Features.

❒ If the indicator of the user function

key assigned to the Auto Mail Re-
ception function is not lit, automat-
ic e-mail reception will not take
place. See Chapter 6 "User Func-
tion Keys", Advanced Features.

❒ If memory runs out, e-mail will not

be received at the specified inter-
vals. Reception will resume when
sufficient memory becomes avail-
able.

Follow these steps at any time to
check for incoming e-mail immedi-
ately. 

Preparation
To receive e-mail by the Manual
Mail Reception key, you need to
assign the Manual Mail Reception
function (Mail Reception) to a user
function key beforehand. See p.26
“Assigning User Function Keys”.
