Right but we have a receptionist look at the faxes to distribute

The receptionist works on the server?


No.   The NetSatisfaxtion client is what I referred to as the
"server screen" meaning "fax server screen" meaning a window to
the fax server.  Probably bad choice of words.


You can only see the cover page so the following confidential
pages are hidden. They could forward the fax to themselves but
a log is kept and we'd know about it.


It still sounds like an honor-system to me.

It is in some respect. You could violate it once. :)


In any case, you could always modify faxrcvd/FaxDispatch to only produce the first page in the PDF and then to use a password to protect a second attachment with the entire fax.

Lee.


Not sure I understand. FaxDispatch could email the first page as an attachment to the receptionist. The proposed second attachment would be the full fax but require a password to open? So what if this particular fax wasn't confidential and went to a user who isn't allowed the password?
