When enabling the Offramp Gateway, this equipment works as an SMTP server to receive E-
mails from the Internet. To enable the SMTP transmission in this equipment, the hostname (or
specific domain) that relates to this equipment must be designated using the DNS server. Then
designate the MX record and configure the SMTP server to route the E-mails received. If the
hostname of this equipment is designated as “host1.ifax.com”, it is set to transfer the E-mails to
this machine when an E-mail to “<account name>@host1.ifax.com” is delivered.
