We would like to us our 800 to receive faxes. Would the fax message feature with the BCM work for us?
 
You need to know that the fax messaging in the Bcm is not working 100% even if your bcm is patched to the latest. Faxes coming from some states in the US(Georgia is one)and East coast in Canada are not always coming thru in your mailbox. We installed many but for some of them, the fix was to put back a physical fax with an ATA. One fax lost was one to much for these customers and they preferred to play safe.
 
We have decided to activate one analog port for our fax machine.

Thanks
 
Something else I remembered and learned the hard way. Due to resourses the BCM will only accept 2 faxes at a time. Do not sell it as a fax server.

If the FAX option is installed... does it support outbound faxing from the desktop and how is it done?

This is a Signature and not part of the answer, it appears on every reply.

This is an Analogy so don't take it personally as some have.

Why change the engine if all you need is to change the spark plugs.


 
Yes it does. It installs a nortel fax printer option. You would print the document, then select nortel fax. It will then ask you the phone number then it will start the fax.
