Hi, Does anyone know the US phone number of the Company that produces the FaxGate Plus faxmodem software. I think they're called 'Solutions'. Even better would be the name and number of a UK distributor. If there is any other software that provides the same sort of facilities (Network wide use of a Fax Modem attached to a Mac), then I would be very interested in details. Please include phone numbers of companies if you can, as I have not been able to find any UK distributors who know much about this subject. Thanks in advance for everyones help.

Solutions 802-865-9220 Dove, 919-763-7600, claims to have a network Fax product in the works -- 1st or 2nd qtr 1991. Don't hold your breath. Prometheus, 503-624-0571 is also working on network software for 1st qtr 1991. Note that this requires their V.32 modem at $1000 list. I think there is also another company in Oregon that has a network fax product in the $1000 range. -- "The universe is not only queerer than we imagine, but it is queerer than we can imagine." J.B.S.

Computer Friends (503) 626-2291 Their LightFax 9624 ifax modem is $399, network software is $200. According to Calvin Smith of "Friends" the network software requires an AppleShare (CAP will do) or TOPS server for spooling. However, the fax modem does not (or cannot, I'm not sure which) need to be attached to the File server. It can be attached to any Mac on the net -- presumably the fastest one. Work is spooled to the file server, the fax server watches the file server for work (in the background). Incomming faxes are either kept on the fax server or spooled to the file server - you choose. I have ordered one -- I'll post impressions after we've played with it a while. -- "The universe is not only queerer than we imagine, but it is queerer than we can imagine." J.B.S.

>>I think there is also another company in Oregon that has a >>network fax product in the $1000 range. We use FaxGate for MicroSoft Mail. It is also available for QuickMail. IT will allow you to Mail to Fax. This is neat as you can compose a mailer and e-mail it hither and yon and also fax it. Also FaxGate has utilities to use MS Mail to easily "print to fax", just like BackFax. Another gateway for MS Mail and Q-Mail is GatorMail. This allows you SMTP mail services. -- = John DeRosa, Motorola, Inc, Cellular Infrastructure Group = = e-mail: ...uunet!motcid!derosaj, motcid!derosaj@uunet.uu.net = = Applelink: N1111 = =I do not hold by employer responsible for any information in this message =
