This is a follow up to an earlier post.<br><br>Looking for a means to "individualize" incoming FAX, so as to distribute them to the intended recipient.<br><br>While the PBX is based on Asterisk, it is not possible for me to "enter" the box to modify things, to any great degree. I thank those who mentioned IAXMODEM, earlier, but that seems a no go.

<br><br>Now, we have many, many fax machines. We have our incoming through PRI, and then redirect to a channel bank. We have no problems with fax reception. When we used a Sangoma card, we did, but now that we're back on Digium hardware, we've been doing well, thus far. Probably had to do with the echo cancellation, but without infinite time to troubleshoot, we just had to get it working.
<br><br>I would not recommend passing fax data across the PCI bus between cards. I'm probably just superstitious, but I wouldn't do it. But it would be very simple to do with just a Dial statement.<br><br>Basically, just go out and try it. Your business requirements and what you're allowed to do obviously drive where your decision is going to go. If you get stuck, and can't find answers through Google or the Wiki, then ask this list. But you can't expect us to tell you what's going to work in your business when you aren't empowered to follow our advice.
