GFI Fax Maker - Sending an SMS using the FAXmaker SMS form

To send an SMS, use the FAXmaker Send SMS Message Form. This form gives you the option of selecting the SMS recipient from your Outlook contacts list. You have to ensure that the recipients mobile field is filled in.

1. Start-up the FAXmaker SMS Message form from the FAXmaker client program group, and input the mobile number in to the “to; cc or bcc” text box.
   
   
2. You can specify the recipient in 2 ways: by typing in the number in the To: field or by selecting a recipient from the Outlook address book. In this case you have to ensure that the recipient has a mobile number entered in the mobile field, before you click on the To: button. To enter a mobile number for a contact, go to the contacts list (contacts node) and double click on the recipient. Now enter the GSM mobile number in the mobile field (just below business fax). Click on Save and Close to save the mobile number.
   
   Note: If you are using an SMS web service, ensure that you enter the mobile number in international format, i.e add the country code in front of the number. For example +62 61 77617448 or +62 8126550192
   
   
3. Now you can select the recipient by clicking on the To... button. The Outlook contacts list will show up. Select the recipient. (e-mail will be written behind the contact, however the SMS form will retrieve the mobile number all the same). You can select multiple recipients. Click OK when done.
   
   Note: The contact will not show up, if you have not entered either an email address OR a fax number. So you have to enter an email address or fax number for each contact.
   
   
4. When you are ready, click on the Send button (Keyboard: CTRL +S).
   FAXmaker will now send the SMS. Soon after you will receive a transmission report in your inbox including information on whether the SMS was sent successfully or not.
