Faxes and the Public Fax Box
The voice mail system Public Fax Box provides fax detect, routing, and
notification for incoming faxes to eliminate the need for a separate dedicated
telephone line for the fax machine.
The system can send a public notice when a call is routed to the Public Fax
Box, so you can check for fax arrival. A caller can record a voice message
about the fax before sending it, and it is added to the fax notice. The operator,
or anyone with public message access, can then redirect the notice and
attached message to the person who received the fax.

The voice mail system recognizes two incoming fax types:
Manual faxes
The person sending the fax dials your telephone number from a fax
machine telephone keypad, and listens to the progress of the call on a
speaker or handset. When the voice mail system answers, the caller
presses the fax extension number and may record a voice message
about the fax. When the fax machine tone is heard, the Send or Start key
is pressed to send the fax.
Automatic faxes
The person sending the fax sets the fax machine to send a fax
automatically. The caller does not have to monitor the progress of the
call. The voice mail system hears the fax tone on the line when it
answers the call, and automatically delivers it to the fax extension.
