RE: Dialing rules for faxes to long distance numbers

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hello Eddie,

Thank you for your update.

According to your description, I understand that the dialing rules for
faxes to long distance numbers is work now. If I have misunderstood your
concern, please don¡¯t hesitate to let me know.

In reference to your next question, based on my research, you may need to
add the "+1" to each number in the address book.

I hope this helps. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not
hesitate to let me know. I am always happy to be of further assistance.

Best regards,
