Prerequisites
- For Physical PBXs: Make sure that the USB drive’s partition or a Windows share for faxes is added in WMS Settings -> System -> Storages (consult WMS Start Guide, Storage services)
- For SMS sendingexchange: W01GSM/ DaySaver gateway must be configured (Consult refer to WMS Start Guide, GSM network)
- Licensing requirements (more information: https://www.wildix.com/licensing/):
- Min. UC-Essential license to activate Fax Server for all users
- Min. UC-Essential license to exchange faxes and SMS for each user
Number of simultaneously sent faxes depends on the number of users according to Per User / Per Service licenses
To determine the number of faxes, use one of these formulas:
Users > 0, but < 12, faxes to be sent = 2
- Users >= 12, but < 24, faxes to be sent = 4
- Users >= 24, but < 40, faxes to be sent = 5
- Users >= 40, but < 60, faxes to be sent = 6
- Users >= 60, but < 120, faxes to be sent = 10
- Users >= 120, but < 200, faxes to be sent = 15
- Users >= 200, but < 300, faxes to be sent = 30
- Users >= 300, but < 500, faxes to be sent = 40
- Users >= 500, faxes to be sent = 45
Examples:
If you have 59 users, than then you can send 6 faxes simultaneously.
If you have 120 users, then the number of simultaneously sent faxes is 15.
General Fax/ SMS Server settings

...
. |
...
Option 1 – Simplified
Send email in plain text or HTML format with an attachment (PDF or TIFF) to the PBX email address (specified in WMS Settings -> System -> Fax/SMS Serverserver).
- In the email subject indicate one or more fax numbers (separated by comma)
...
- PBX forwards the fax to one or multiple numbers indicated in the email subject
...
- PBX follows the “fax dialplan” procedure selected in the WMS -> Users for the user who had sent the email
...
Note |
---|
Note: if Mail2Fax is sent via Remote PBX (selected in WMS Settings -> System > System -> FAX> FAX/ SMS server), PBX uses the Fax dialplan assigned to a user who sends Mail2Fax, instead of one specified in FAX/ SMS Server Settings. |
Option 2 – OLD, using a template
- Create an ad hoc dialplan procedure “faxout” or edit an existing Dialplan procedure, for instance “users”. Specify the prefix for line engagement
- Send an email in plain text format with an attachment (PDF or TIFF) to the PBX email address (specified in “Fax/SMS Serverserver”) containing the text as provided in the example below
- PRINTEDFAX: TRUE
- FAXNUMBER: 00461019978 (destination number)
- FROMNAME:PBX
- STATIONID: Wildix PBX
- HEADERINFO: Fax Server
- FROMNUMBER:100 (fax sender)
- LANGUAGE: it
- ANSRETRY: 3 (number of attempts of fax sending)
- NOANSRETRY: 5 (number of attempts of fax sending in case there is no response from the called party)
- FAXPASSWORD: wildix (protection password)
- CONTEXT: faxout (dialplan procedure used to manage fax calls)
- CCNUMBER: 00461019978 00461019978 00461019978 (additional destination numbers)
Note |
---|
Note: In this example the prefix “0” is used for the line engagement in “faxout” Dialplan procedure. |
The PBX receives an email and uses the “faxout” procedure to send the fax to one or multiple numbers indicated in the email body.
Mail2SMS
Send an email in plain text format to the PBX email address containing the text as provided in the example below:
- SENDSMS: TRUE
- FROMNUMBER: 100 (SMS sender)

- SMSPASSWORD: wildix
- CCNUMBER: +393412345678 +393412345678 (additional destination numbers)
