New Features

RightFax Integration

RightFax is an enterprise fax appliance solution from OpenText Corporation. Find more information about RightFax on http://faxsolutions.opentext.com/rightfax-fax-server.aspx.

Current implementation of the Boomerang RightFax adapter supports the outbound fax flow only and requires OpenText RightFax Web Services. Please note that the RightFax Web Services product is licensed separately.

Enhancements / Fixes

1) All Boomerang services have now been upgraded to Microsoft .Net Framework 4.

2) Inbound e-mail messages with empty target address list will no longer generate “address malformed” error. Post-processing and cleanup of inbound e-mails is an end-user responsibility. Consider the [sp_On_Email_In] method.

3) Dropbox “my application” public and secret tokens have been made available via the admin console file settings page. Please refer to Boomerang on-line documentation and knowledge base on how to register your own application with Dropbox.

4) New Boomerang settings to support RightFax and Dropbox:
