Question

Configuring Windows Sever 2k8 for use with Windows Fax/Scan

Mar 4, 2015 12:28AM PST

I am trying to configure a Windows server running 2k8 and using the Windows Fax and Scan. I got everything set up and faxing successfully. However, I cant seem to configure the send receipts. I am ok with the confirmations being pumped out into a folder or via email.

I have tried both configuring with a Gmail account and an Office365 email but I may be doing it wrong. Any help is greatly appreciated.

If this doesn't work, I fear you call Microsoft and report.

Thats what I tried first. I was seeing with O365 you need to use a SMTP relay which I tried as well and that did not work (again I may be missing parts) and thats why I reverted back to Gmail to see if I could get the confirmation and that too failed.

Time to call and ask for a fix.

I wonder if they made an assumption you would be running Exchange Server.
