Issue
In order to get e-mail messages sent from Lotus Notes to be sent as faxes, you need to install the Lotus Notes Addin. (Please refer to the FaxNow documentation for information regarding setting up the Lotus Notes Address Book).

Solution

  1. Run the MFCUpdate file located on the FaxNow CD (or see below for further details)

  2. Add the Notes directory to the PATH environment variable (On Windows 9x add to the AUTOEXEC.BAT file, on Windows NT add to Environment variables in Control Panel->System)

  3. Map a drive to the FaxNow directory (Not the programs directory)

  4. From the Notes Server type in:
    load:\Programs\Isflg32

  5. Finally type in on the Notes Server: tell isflg32 configure

This will allow you to configure the Mail Router Mailbox (as defined in the Lotus Notes Address book for the foreign domain)

Extras
** If the Notes Server is running as an NT service, then the FaxNow files have to be located on the same machine as the Notes Server. Otherwise you need to ensure the Notes Server is NOT running as an NT service. This is because Lotus Notes has problems accessing network drives when running as an NT service. **

Download MFC update utility: winlibup.exe
