Tom,
In the begining of this project, as Bill pointed out recently, we wanted to
make Fax over IPP a better fax solution than Internet Fax.
It looks like we are now trying to remove one good feature after another and
dumbing it down to be no better than or even worse than Internet Fax.
I suggest going back to the objectives of the project and determine if there
is indeed any point in continuing the project if the result is going to be
something of very marginal value in the market place.
