Send FAX via SMTP

The final question is: How can I send a e-mail to a "invalid" mail to a exchange server?

The history:

I am able to send mails in my SAP system ECC 6.0. The configuration is all done.

But know I need to send a mail to the exchange server to a "special adress". If the exchange server recive a mail to that reciver it will forward the message to Fenestrae fax server. The receiver that the exchange server is awaiting is [FAX:<fax number>] for example [FAX:351221234567]

Via Outlook all is ok. But if I try to send it from SAP it will stop because SAP considers [FAX:<fax number>] as a invalid adress...

Wath I already saw:

FM: SX_INTERNET_ADDRESS_TO_NORMAL validates the e-mail address. I change this FM. I put an enhancement in the very beggining to not validate a address if it beggins with a [

FM: SX_PERFORM_SMTPSEND I think thats the one o tries to send the mail, but I'm having trouble undertanding where can I change it to send the mail

SO... Can anyone help me sending a mail to a invalid address... The address is invalid from the e-mail point of view... But the exchange will understand it...

Hi,

l_reclist-receiver = <Faxnumber>. ---> Fax Number
  l_reclist-rec_type = 'F'.            ---> Receiver Type F for Fax
  APPEND l_reclist TO lt_reclist.
  CLEAR  l_reclist.

Thanks for the reply Avinash,

The reciver must be [FAX:<fax number>] when it gets to the Exchange server.

Do you, or any one , know a way to get SAP do this ...

The solution to this problem was sending an email, with the fax data to the fax server.
