FaxReceiver MC200A to be use in any country in the worl for which there is a PCMCIA
fax/mo em car available that fulfills the local stan ar s.

or DHCP. Before operating the evice a number of parameters have to be set up in the
FaxReceiver MC200A to allow log on to your company or Internet provi er's mail server.
3 ifferent login types, CRAM-MD5, LOGIN (AUTH=LOGIN) an non-authenticate . It will try

fails.
