With Ozefax it all comes in as e-mail attachments to our receptionist e-mail. They sort it and forward as needed or place in the DHB for us to file in MD3. When we fax things off with fax launcer it works exactly like a fax machine - enter the phone number in international format, add a cover letter prn and send it off. I get a confirmation e-mail if it has been delivered (or not).
Our VOIP also makes the answering service easier - any message left is forwarded by the PABX as a sound attachment via e-mail to me.
