Whether in real time was an unknown here.  I thought maybe they could
be spooled somewhere or something.  That may even be possible at
efax.com but I didn't see any reference to that.

I was thinking something similar to the messages I get occasionsally
when calling someone, that say "the person is on the phone, would I
like to leave a message."  The person is on the phone but can still
get my message later.

Yeah, that will help some.

Yes, of couse, the obvious way, but still would be better to keep it
in house while learning.
