You must program Office PhoneMail to recognize which extensions are connected to fax ma-
chines so that the Auto Attendant will know where to direct incoming fax calls. Office PhoneMail
will recognize up to two fax machines; these must be connected to analog extensions. Note that
before setting the fax extension, you must enable the extension you are setting.
You can configure Office PhoneMail with zero fax machines. If you specify that no fax machines
are connected to the system, then an incoming fax tone will cause Auto Attendant to play ten
seconds of busy tone and then disconnect the call.

Enabling Fax Overflow Mailbox(es)
If you have purchased and installed a fax enabling system expansion card, your Office Phone-
Mail system supports a variety of special fax features, including fax overflow mailboxes.
Fax settings will not impact outgoing fax calls. An outgoing-only fax machine can be
connected to any line and may be the same fax machine that you have assigned to
the Hicom Office PhoneMail.
