Welcome to America!  Home of the Ridiculous!  The crazier and ridiculous it
is, the more it's likely to be true.

But, seriously, I was under the understanding that you only had to get a
license if you are offering it to external (non employees) and/or
selling/bundling the service.

If you are using it internally for your company, I didn't think you had to
have a license.  But, I've been wrong before, I'm not an attorney, and I no
of no attorneys worth even asking the time.  THe one's I know would give you
five different answers as to what time it is just to cover their butts.

To be on the safe side, we kill a tree everytime a fax comes in.  I'm sure
that's patented too, though.
