Hi,
I use Hylafax only to send faxes. (Redhat 8)
But I plan an installation to receive faxes also, but I am not sure how
it is working and what a phone line I need.
I think it is too much expensive to get a fax-number for each user from
the phone company.(I think as first 30 users, but growing rapidly)
Is there a software or anything included in hylafax with that I can use a
collection-phone-number, where I have one phone-number with some lines
and where I can use a lot of expanded numbers to verify the receiver of
the fax?
Or how do other hylafax users handle this? We will install it in the
United States, but also in another European Country .
What you're looking for is "DID". You will need to order it from your
telephone company and get the appropriate modem hardware to support
it. Since you're only talking about one line you'll probably want to look
into the MultiTech MT5634ZBA-DID. You'll need to order the analog line
plus a DID line from the telephone company with as many DID-numbers as you
need. Here, the dialtone line is US$20, the DID line is US$50, and the
numbers are a few dollars more in blocks of 5 (prices per month).
