Okay.....had to look into the fax service with SBS.....and you send it like
your printer.....

So the only way I know of then to send faxes like you say, is a third party
program, such as Omtool's Genifax or GFI Fax.... I looked into about 4-5
different products, and we chose Genifax....so we could send 1 fax to
multiple contractors....and we send out about 200-300 a day. :)
