You can send *and* receive faxes on your Unix system through HylaFAX (and HylaFAX is free)!!!
Although we use HylaFAX in our office as a send-only system, you can receive faxes too. Let 
HylaFAX store them as TIFF files in a SAMBA-share and look at them with with favourite 
WIN-TIFF-viewer.

IŽll post this letter in the SAMBA-digest again, but also IŽll post it in the Hylafax-digest. 
Some people there can surely tell you more about HylaFAX.

If youŽve got problems - donŽt hesitate to mail me again.
