Receiving a fax using DSL

Is it possible to receive a fax using DSL? I have set up nothing yet, but can't find an answer to this basic need.

Many users don't realize that faxing is a function that can only use analog
phone lines and analog fax modems. Accordingly, no fax software will
function with cable modems or DSL lines. With some DSL connections you can
obtain a DSL line filter suitable for connecting a standard analog voice
line to the DSL line and can then connect an analog fax modem to that line.

Thank you very much, Russ. That answers my question. Your answer was my understanding but I could find no 'official' input. Thanks again.
