[asterisk-users] Bottom line on fax reception

I use Asterisk and Hylafax and iaxmodem to send 600+ faxes per week with no baby sitting, I receive about 20 and it requires no baby
sitting

Hylafax and iaxmodem with Asterisk works very well - check out iaxmodem and hylafax lists for much bigger examples

Cheers Duncan

Sorry but I must have missed it if someone else responded.  If the built in
fax reception doesn't work very well what about the 3rd party stuff
mentioned on the Asterisk Wiki?

Someone already answered this question.  The answer is no, it does not work
by your definition of production ready.

Thanks,
