Hi, We use fax feature with Small Business Server 2003 and Outlook 2007. We use to send fax using the address style [FAX:0,021234567] (we type it), the "," stands for a pause when accessing an external line to send the fax. It uses to work perfectly ... Since 2 weeks now (windows/office update?) when Outlook validate this fax address (underline of the address), it transforms the "," (coma) we typed by a ";" (semicolumn) and the fax fail to be send. Then we edit the address in the failed send fax and change the ";" by a "," and then it works. Any suggestion about this wrong validation by Outlook? Regards Phm
This format is only used for one-off faxing. By which method are you sending faxes? -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Yves&Philippe" wrote in message news:90500179-46AF-4700-BFA3-F2C1181879FF@microsoft.com... > Hi, > We use fax feature with Small Business Server 2003 and Outlook 2007. > We use to send fax using the address style [FAX:0,021234567] (we type it), > the "," stands for a pause when accessing an external line to send the > fax. > It uses to work perfectly ... > Since 2 weeks now (windows/office update?) when Outlook validate this fax > address (underline of the address), it transforms the "," (coma) we typed > by > a ";" (semicolumn) and the fax fail to be send.

We send fax as described in our previous comment - in outlook > new message - in the "TO:" address of the message we type [FAX:0,021234567] (it was working perfectly for more then 2 years and now it stopped) - the exchange server of the small business server send the fax through the fax card THE PROBLEM is : [FAX:0,021234567] is changed by [FAX:0;021234567] when clicking send in the message, and this happens only since few weeks.

Start by clearing your autocompletion cache. Why would you not create and use a Contact Record for Fax recipients and dialing rules if you want to fax from Outlook? Why use a one-off address each time? -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Yves&Philippe" wrote in message news:736FEB9B-7AD4-4C90-8028-134C8F8C7A8F@microsoft.com... > We send fax as described in our previous comment > - in outlook > new message > - in the "TO:" address of the message we type [FAX:0,021234567] > (it was working perfectly for more then 2 years and now it stopped) > - the exchange server of the small business server send the fax through > the > fax card > > THE PROBLEM is : [FAX:0,021234567] is changed by [FAX:0;021234567] when > clicking send in the message, and this happens only since few weeks. > > Thanks > > "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: > >> This format is only used for one-off faxing.
