We are considering various FAX solutions for the campus e-mail network. The problem that we have with most of them is handling inbound FAXs. Several PC FAX vendors support the use of Direct Inward Dialing (DID), usually via an EXACOM DID module. The DID module passes to the FAX server the "actual" phone number that was dialed. The server then uses this to route the FAX to the correct e-mail user. This solution is fine except that it does not address all possible e-mail systems on campus and the cost for some of the PC software is very high. Is there any way to currently use a DID type line with PMDF-FAX, or are there plans for such. We like the way PMDF-FAX works but dont want to have to someone there to manually route the incoming FAXs.
