I have been trying to use my address book to set up a fax group, however, there  
must be an easier way than creating all individual entries in my address boook,  
then creating a group, then adding all the defined entries into the group.   
This reminds me of the Mac system 7 Users&Groups control panel.

What I desire would be the following:
1)	Having some names only in a group, and not at any other level of my  
adress book.
2)	A field to schedule some faxes - possibly based on country codes (say  
to send to the far east at low utilization/cost times).

3)	Being able to define/manage mail groups from within the address book.
	Handle addressing to multiple persons within a department via e-mail.

This can be handled in 3 ways:
Multiplexing a single phone line into n "virtual" phone numbers.
Group 4 named recepient faxes.
OCR of incoming TIFFs/FAXes, comparison to department list for phone or name,  
and then mailing to expected recepient.

  I know I can do 1 and 2, but how...ie, best and most efficient method.  I  
look forward to responses about 3.
