Add_(FAX_Mode)

   Syntax: add alias-name fax-number number domain domain-name
         [[item value]...]

   To add an alias in FAX mode, the alias name, FAX telephone
   number, and domain name (e.g., text-fax.example.com) must all
   be supplied. If the FAX telephone number contains any spaces or
   commas, then it must be enclosed in double quotes.

   Additional items of information can be specified. Note that when
   specifying a value for an item, the value must be enclosed in
   double quotes if it contains any spaces, commas, or characters
   you don't want converted to lower case. Furthermore, any double
   quotes appearing in the value must be changed to two consecutive
   double quotes. The names of the additional items and their
   meanings are:
 

1-address

   The recipient's address can be displayed in one to five lines
   on the FAX cover page. These items are used to specify each
   individual line of the address. If no address lines are
   specified, then no address lines will be displayed on the FAX
   cover page. If intermediate address lines are omitted (e.g.,
   lines 1 and 3 specified, line 2 omitted), then blank address
   lines will be displayed in place of the omitted lines.
 

authorization

   Your site might require you to specify an authorization or
   access code in order to send FAXes. You can specify any required
   authorization or access codes with this item.
 

fax-modem-number

   The telephone number which the transmitting FAX modem should use
   when identifying itself to the receiving FAX device. While the
   receiving FAX device might print this number across the top or
   bottom of received pages, it is not placed on the FAX by PMDF-
   FAX (the sending FAX modem). To control the FAX number which is
   displayed on the cover page as your FAX telephone number, use the
   "my-fax-number" item.
 

my-fax-number

   The FAX telephone number to display on the FAX cover page.
 

my-organization-name

   The name of your organization, group, or department to display
   across the top of each transmitted FAX page.
 

my-telephone-number

   The recipient's telephone number to be printed on the FAX
   cover page. If not specified, then no telephone number will be
   displayed.

   For example, to specify a FAX address for John Doe at Example
   Company, Inc., the following command can be issued while in FAX
   mode:

db.fax> add john-fax fax-number "(714) 555-1212" domain
            "text-fax.example.com" recipient "John Doe" 1-address
            "Example" telephone "(714) 555-1212"
db.fax> show john-fax
Alias name: john-fax
Recipient's FAX number:       (714) 555-1212
Recipient's name:             John Doe
Address line 1:               Example
Recipient's telephone number: (714) 555-1212
Domain specification:         @text-fax.example.com
[1 entry shown]
db.fax>

   Note that all of the values entered were enclosed in double
   quotes. This is often the safest policy as it avoids having to
   worry about spaces or other characters which can appear in the
   values to be specified and it prevents values entered from being
   converted to lower case.
 

recipients-name

   The name of the recipient as it will appear on the cover page
   of the FAX message. Be sure to enclose the recipient's name in
   double quotes so as to not have it converted to lower case. If
   not specified, then no recipient's name will be displayed on the
   FAX cover page.
 

send-after

   Do not send the FAX until after the specified date and time. The
   date and time must be given using the standard OpenVMS date-time
   specification format. For example, the date-time specification
   "3-FEB-2012 22:35:00" requests that the FAX not be transmitted
   until after 22:35 (10:35 PM) on February 3, 2012.
 

setup

   A PostScript file to first process before processing your
   message. The filename must specify a full path to the file and
   the file must be world readable. Text library modules can also be
   specified using the format file-spec(module-name); e.g.,

   setup D1:[INIT]PSLIB(LETTERHEAD)

   where the text library is the file D1:[INIT]PSLIB.TLB and the
   module name is LETTERHEAD.
