Network faxing will never be the same

London, UK, 28th April 1999 – GFI, leading developer of fax software, today launched the new version of FAXmaker for Networks/SMTP 7.0. FAXmaker for Networks/SMTP 7.0 is set to revolutionize the fax server sphere as it is the first fax server to integrate with Outlook without requiring Exchange server. Allowing users to fax from the Business Fax field in Outlook, this innovative feature is sure to prove a winner, especially among smaller business concerns.

In the new version, users can simply choose the Business fax field from a contact in their Outlook Contact list to send a fax, enabling them to keep one central address book for all contacts. Although previously only Exchange fax connectors offered this degree of integration, FAXmaker for Networks/SMTP now offers this facility without forcing companies to invest in Exchange Server.

FAXmaker for Networks/SMTP 7.0 includes an SMTP/POP3 fax gateway, allowing fax integration with all popular SMTP/POP3 servers, as well as Lotus Notes and Novell GroupWise. This feature allows users to send and receive faxes from their e-mail client.

FAXmaker for Networks/SMTP 7.0 merges FAXmaker for Networks and FAXmaker for SMTP and includes important new enterprise features such as:

• Remote fax server & user administration,
• Remote viewing of fax server status,
• Advanced API toolkit using Comm objects,
• Enhanced document rendering,
• Word mail merge support, and
• Support for Lotus Notes.

"FAXmaker for Networks/SMTP 7.0 re-establishes FAXmaker's lead as the industry’s easiest to use and most affordable fax server" says Nick Galea, President of GFI. "While FAXmaker’s many new enterprise features and integration with mail servers such as Lotus Notes make it suitable for larger corporations, FAXmaker for Networks 7.0 is also an ideal solution for small to medium-sized businesses because it offers all the advantages of Outlook integration without requiring Exchange server."

The new version of FAXmaker includes an advanced API toolkit based on Comm objects. Using Comm objects, any application can be programmatically fax enabled. Samples for Microsoft Word, Access, Visual Basic and Excel are included in the product. Other new features are header and footer texts, advanced modem options and support for more ISDN devices.
