Is the adaptive answering setting enabled? By default, Adaptive answering is
disabled for the Shared Fax service in Windows Server 2003.

To enable adaptive answering in Windows Server 2003:

1. Goto Fax Service Manager

2. Go to Devices and Providers -> Devices

3. Right-click the modem and press Properties

4. Select the Microsoft Modem FSP tab.

5. Check the Enable adaptive answering if supported by the modem box.
