Fax Console - Receiving faxes

[Clem Browne]

I am making increasing use of Fax Console, now that my
13yr. old free-standing machine has given up the ghost!
No serious problems sending and receiving when system
(Dell 8200) is fully powered up. But what I'd appreciate
learning is whether it is possible to receive faxes when
system is in STANDBY mode. I've been assured this IS
feasible, but test faxes sent to me while Dell was in
standby did NOT get through. -- Your guidance welcomed!!

You cannot receive a fax once you set the machine to STANDBY mode. The
sender will get "No Answer" message. Once you resume the machine and the
sender retries to send, the fax will be received successfully.

Thanks,
Anand

Are you using any "wake on ring" capable modem? Which is your modem
make/model?

Thanks,
