NOTE
The machine sends e-mail or I-fax messages to mail servers using SMTP.
The machine can receive incoming messages from a mail server using the POP3 protocol or directly
using the machine's own SMTP receiving function.
If the latter method is used, it is not necessary for the mail server to support the POP3 protocol. (The
machine can receive I-fax images and error e-mail messages sent when errors occur during
communication, but not any other type of e-mail.)
