When attempting to send a fax from Microsoft Exchange Client in a profile
that contains both the Exchange Server Service AND the Windows 95 fax
service, you may receive the following error messages during the rendering
of the fax:
Could not schedule fax for transmission.
File system error.
CAUSE
Norton Antivirus is enabled on the Windows 95 computer, preventing the fax
from being properly rendered in the Windows/Spool directory.
Also files in the Windows/Spool/Fax directory can prevent the fax from being properly rendered.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, try any of the following:
- Remove or disable Norton Antivirus.
- Create two Microsoft Exchange profiles: one with Exchange Server service (only) and one with only Fax service.
- Remove any files that are in the Windows/Spool/Fax directory.
- This may also happen when a blank fax is attempted to be sent without a subject or cover page. This can be avoided by adding a Subject line or a coverpage to a blank fax.
