Re: [ARIE-L] Ariel 4.1 -- Ariel Email Address--why use that option?

2011-03-01 Thread ILL_PSC ILL_PSC
Dear Jody,
 
The Ariel e-mail address is for Ariel libraries whose IT departments won't open 
ports and don't want to put a machine outside of the institutional firewall. 
They can't use the FTP option.
 
It allows Ariel to access a special e-mail account and download Ariel files 
into the received queue. When Ariel finds an e-mail message that isn't an Ariel 
document, it puts the message (as a text file) in the Unknown folder.
 
The outgoing portion of e-mail for Ariel (at least in my case because I use FTP 
mainly) is a regular e-mail account. I set it up this way, so I wouldn't lose 
patron e-mail replies in the Unknown folder. I think originally before patron 
delivery, it was the same as the incoming e-mail server with a specially 
designated "Return e-mail address." But I am not sure, so take it with a grain 
of salt.
 
I do both FTP and e-mail because I figure it helps widen the number of 
libraries I can supply articles to (I like being a net lender) and the number 
of libraries who can supply me with articles.

We are getting ready to do quite a few changes in our ILL office and

When people talk about an Ariel email address--what exactly is the
purpose of that kind of address?  Is that used by non Ariel users to
send email files to an Ariel address, since,  when you are communicating
from Ariel to Ariel you wouldn't need an email address. I assume it has
to do with keeping files within a closed system or is it easier to email
files to patrons this way?  We have Ariel 4.1.

It's been a while since I used 3.4, but this is my best recollection of
the
email checking issue.

3.4 is a bit kludgy if you want to send but not receive Ariel email. The
issue is, if you turn on email, and don't have a dedicated Ariel email
account, every time you check for new mail Ariel takes all the non-Ariel
email received into your account and puts it in a junk folder within the
Ariel folder while also removing it from the server. (It doesn't support
IMAP, only POP3.) Because 3.4 doesn't support turning on send only
(4.1.1
does) the trick here is to enter everything except your password for
receiving. Set the interval at which Ariel should check for email to the
longest possible (I don't believe it will let you leave that space
blank). I
think it was 999 minutes, but I could be mistaken. Then, roughly once a
day
it will prompt you to enter the password so it can check for email. Just
cancel the prompt box, and it will not check for mail. It's not an
elegant
solution, but it works.

RE: [ARIE-L] Scanner question

2011-03-01 Thread Document Delivery
We use the HP ScanJet 7650 with Ariel 3.4. On the one hand, it's a good 
scanner. On the other hand, it's really made for documents. I asked HP about 
changing the threshold so I can scan a book better on the bed, and they said 
'why would you want to scan a book?'. I would have prefered the Fujitsu fi-6230 
but it costs about $1200 instead of $800. 

Our issue with the ScanJet 7650 is that we don't use their software, we use 
ariel, and we can't change the light threshold, so if something is just a touch 
off the glass it scans black. The software is complicated to use, it seems to 
me, and our warranty is now over. But it's well made, just keep the glass clean.

Subject: Scanner question

Does anyone use the HP Scan jet 7650 with Ariel?  It's one that is 'lying 
round' and not used much. 
  Hoping to replace the scan Partner 15C with one that has a USB connectivity.  
 All replies greatly 
appreciated?

Thank you.
