Inbound Faxes

When the fax server receives a fax, it stores it in the Inbox (Receive Queue).
From there it will be routed to clients based on information received with the fax
such as which physical fax port it was received on (line routing) or the dialed
phone number (DID routing).

Additional operations on faxes such as Exporting them or Autoprinting them are
not truly “routing” and so have different mechanisms to indicate which faxes
should be Exported or Autoprinted. Refer to their own sections, below.

All Routing information is stored in the User or Group configuration, accessible
from the Administration program’s User Administration section. See

2.4)

Managing Users and Groups

for more information.

information when the fax is received to uniquely identify a single user or a single
group. For example, this means you can only assign a single phone number to
one user or to one group.

Line Sharing: Sharing phone lines between NET SatisFAXtion and another
device is not supported. Line sharing can cause numerous problems including
