| | Vista fax: how to set retry parameters or send immediately? So I have a fax that failed to send. I see in the Windows Fax and Scan applet that the status is "retrying"; also by waiting patiently I see that it will retry in about ten minutes. But... 1. How can I set the retry interval or the number of retries? 2. How can I make send immediately the fax that's stuck in the outbox? |

Once you've sent a fax into the black hole, it must exceed the retries you've specified before you can do anything else with it. All you can do is pause it and delete it. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "MKairys" <michaelkairys@gmail.com> wrote in message news:1181151812.481070.74540@a26g2000pre.googlegroups.com... > So I have a fax that failed to send.

| | Re: Vista fax: how to set retry parameters or send immediately? Also, if you want to avoid "Retry Purgatory" in the future just set your number of retries to 0. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "MKairys" <michaelkairys@gmail.com> wrote in message news:1181312437.412265.139430@q66g2000hsg.googlegroups.com... >> 1.
