Re: FAX OVER IP ! anyone ???

@Jason, thanks for your input. I beleive xmediusFAX has an inbuilt mechanism
for redirecting faxes to a local database in the even of WAN outage, but it
seems like its only available on the SP (AXP) edition and not
software...thats not good. I have to look deep into that.

@Frog, each time i order some take-away Kentucky fried Chicken (KFC), they
always seems to miss out the ketchups. :) , so eating at the restuarant
sometimes may be tastier...

Its good to know they fix the licencing issues in v9; bcos the CFS is top of
my list for now.

Cheers guys,

Charlie
