Can I receive Faxs and Voice Messages

[Steven S. Silver]

I used to own Symantec Talkworks Pro which did a great job as an
answering machine and a fax machine. It now long gone. Is there a way to
receive voice mail (probably someone else's software) and to use the
Office Fax capability at the same time? This way I can also retain my
years of old stored faxes without moving to a radically new product.

Distinctive Ring is not supported by Windows XP. Therefore, all current fax
software will answer every incoming call it receives. The alternative is to
install an external switching device to your phone line. You can find some
