How can I view previous Sent Faxes in Fax and Scan?

I have Vista Ult. I have thousands of faxes in my Sent Folder that are up to
7 years old, many from XP. Since I have re-installed Vista, I have been
unable to get Fax and Scan to view these previous faxes under the Sent Items
folder. The new faxes are saving in the same folder as the ones from XP and
my previous Vista install. I cannot view any old faxes in the Sent Items
folder, I have to go to the Fax folder in my Documents that I have set up as
my folder of record in order to view them. I was never able to get Fax and
Scan to view the old Faxes from XP even though they appear to be saved in the
same cryptic fashion as those saved in Vista.

Known bug. Store them elsewhere so you can view them with any standard TIF
viewer.

Are they working on this? Is a fix anticipated?

I brought this up to the Fax developers at the Summit: they may be able to
do something about it, stay tuned...
