About the Exchange Server 2007 Connector & FaxPress Email Gateway

The Exchange Server 2007 Connector is part of the FaxPress Plus server-based email integration option for Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 environments, and supports Exchange 2007 servers, as well as cluster server environments. Installed from the FaxPress Plus 5.0 CD, the Exchange Server 2007 Connector runs as a service on your Exchange Server 2007.

If you’d rather not have any fax-related services running on your Exchange server, but would prefer a server-based solution, rather than the client-based Outlook Direct, see MS Outlook Environments.

The Exchange Connector works together with the FaxPress Plus Email Gateway, one of the FaxPress Plus server’s add-on services.

The Exchange Connector and FaxPress Plus Email Gateway each play a distinct role in enabling the FaxPress Plus server’s integration with your Exchange Server 2007 Server. The Exchange Server 2007 Connector acts as a message transport agent between the Exchange 2007 server and the FaxPress Plus Email Gateway, scanning the Exchange 2007 server and forwarding all fax messages to the Email Gateway. The Connector also provides fax addressing templates for Exchange users.

The Email Gateway synchronizes the Exchange and FaxPress user databases, converts fax-addressed email messages passed by the Exchange Connector to a faxable format, then sends those messages to the FaxPress Plus outgoing fax queue. The FaxPress Email Gateway provides two options for use with the Exchange Server 2007 Connector:

1. Microsoft Exchange Connector Using SMTP option.
2. Microsoft Exchange Connector Using MAPI option.

Both options enable inbound and outbound faxing through Exchange, synchronizing of the FaxPress and Exchange user databases, use of the global address book for faxing, and convenient server-side deployment.
