Title: fax software needed
Post by: mike_mattos on August 04, 2004, 11:04:39 PM

I'm looking for an INCOMING fax software system, we're using winFAX but it isn't very sharable, I'd like a system I can use on SME so I can automatically  send the newly received faxes via e-mail and then read them away from the office.

Suggestions ?

Thx  

Mike

Duncan, a link to the search page really isn't very helpful.  The search talks ONLY about hyla fax and how to use it to SEND and especially how to send with SAMBA/Windows.

Not only that, the Hyla help talks about e-smith 4.1.

Hopefully someone on the forum has used a different product, perhaps windows based, that stores its data in a more friendly manner.  

My main goal is to automatically send the incoming fax documents as email attachments to eliminate needing to monitor the fax service.

Outgoing fax is already handled, don't need to re-invent that wheel!

Jusdt search around abit. I have used Hyla on 5.5 and now on 6 and no problems. A bit of searching for version 5.6 should reveal lots. Hyla for 5.6 works on 6.
