Removing Faxes from the Microsoft Fax Queue

MORE INFORMATION

You may want to clear the fax queue by manually removing the temporary files that compose the faxes in the queue. To do so, follow these steps:

1. Quit and log out of Microsoft Exchange.
2. Open an MS-DOS command prompt session.
3. Type the following command to move to the fax queue directory

   cd\<windir>\spool\fax

   where <windir> is the Windows 95 directory.
4. Type the following commands to remove the temporary spool files:

   del *.mg3
   del *.efx

5. Type exit to close the MS-DOS command prompt session.
6. Restart Microsoft Exchange.

NOTE: A fax sitting in the outbox will start the faxing process and put the fax or faxes back into the queue.
