ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to the automatic receipt and distristribution of facsimile mail, herein known as fax mail. It is particularly important in situations where there is a relatively large number fax users and relatively few fax machines to perform the sending and receiving. In this case the manual distribution is cumbersome and slow, and provides little tracking or security. This invention provides a fairly simple method to automatically distribute fax mail to a number of recipient that are network connected to a server or main computer. At the same time the method provides a means for handling fax mail that does not have with it the routing information necessary to automatically route it to the intended recipient. The process also has means to provide tracking and security for auditing purposes.
