Gringras
You're welcome.. progress comes at a price.. receiving faxes by computer has
always been a little problematic, software often being unable to distinguish
between fax and voice calls.. hardware solutions like those manufactured by
Avro Pacific promising great things but delivering not a whole hell of a
lot.. there is still this belief that computers should be able to handle the
task easily, but the truth is that dedicated fax machines or 'fax to email'
are still the best solutions.. to some degree, this is personal opinion, but
I have yet to come across anybody who has it figured out..
No doubt somebody will attempt to prove me wrong.. :)
