FOR SYSOPS ONLY!!!

So you have a WC3.X BBS and want to do this eh? Well here's how...

ITEMS REQUIRED:

Intel Satisfaxion Modem
FAXPAK by Jeff Hofstetter
WCPRO

First of all you need to get the MODEM and BBS to answer correctly, so
I am including my satis.mdm file for Wildcat. Be sure you set the FAX
to autoanswer in the INTEL SETUP PROGRAM for 1 ring. You will find this
option under Technical Options.

My FAX.BAT:  (your path's & file names will vary)

F:
cd \wc30
wcpro faxout
copy line.fax+faxout.fax faxout.now
FPRETRY -g -e -l F:\wc30\wcwork\node1\log\fpretry.log
FPSEND faxout.now *faxout.def -c faxout.cvr
FPRECV -f -d F:\BBS\FAXIN -x
FPLOG -v -r -l 10 -q -o F:\wc30\wcwork\node1\log\faxsend.log
FPPRINT -a -o LPT1 -q -m F:\BBS\FAXIN -e
FPDEL * -r -n -sc
F:
cd \wc30

WCPRO:

Create a COMMAND file for WCPRO that will EXPORT the FAX messages.
Example:

LIST MESSAGES MATCHING FAXMSG.PMM CONFERENCE=2 FORMAT=FULL LOGFILE=FAXOUT.FAX
DELETE MESSAGES MATCHING FAXDEL.PMM CONFERENCE=2 LOGFILE=FAXDEL.LOG

The main idea is to SEARCH for the word FAX in the SUBJECT field. 
IE:  Subject:  FAX XXX-XXXX

It is a good idea to run this command file BEFORE you export to the net.
This will keep your FAX messages on your bbs and not send them out into
the Common (or whatever you choose) Conf.


FaxPAK:

You will need the ADVANCED EDITION, which can be obtained from:

                         1722 Drake Street
                         Longmont, CO 80503

          Support phone: 303-440-7683 (USA Mountain time zone)
		    BBS: 303-772-6778 (Wildcat I might add!)
                    Fax: 303-440-7683

You will need to create a .CFG file for the FPSEND program.
Example:

Msgstart   = -----------------------
FromField  = From:
ToField    = To:
PhoneField = Subj: FAX
Maxdigits  = 7
FileExt    = FAX

This file will restrict use to Local Faxes, and use the ---------- as the
message delimiter. A small problem is that WCPRO is not consistant in it's
message output. The ----------- is not present BEFORE the first message, 
so you will need to create a file that contains this delimiter and you can
use DOS copy to add this line to your message outfile.

For you DESQVIEW user's, you will need to run this FAX.BAT at DOS
(not under DV), perhaps preceeding your nightly tape runs or whatever
else you do outside DV. 

This should take you along way to having FAX and your BBS both on one
telephone line and your EMAIL to FAX setup working smoothly. If you have
additional questions, you can reach me at:
