[Freeswitch-users] FaxxBochs hackers?

Tue Jul 10 08:14:28 MSD 2012

Sure, and I wholeheartedly agree. But none of these arguments are compelling to users, and making them just means you'll lose a sale. It's unlikely a large fax customer is going to say "Wow, you know, I now realize faxes are just ancient relics, and we're going to ditch them." By not enabling faxes, you only end up harming the customer.

There are more modern ways of legally transmitting documents. Signed and all. I have several clients that are practicing lawyers in multiple states and my own brother has a law firm.

These are simply excuses. My point is that there ARE better ways. We just keep enabling a poor, old, and broken technology.

Faxes carry legal standing that email does not. So, you can want a better solution, but the reality is that fax won't disappear soon. In fact, as I understand, part of T.38 was driven by legal requirements.

I disagree. The job of any telecom or IT professional is to also educate and circulate out antiquated equipment.

I don't know why we still accept the use of faxes when things like typewriters have pretty much been eliminated.

You know if I told my boss that all fax machines were phased out . I wouldn't have a job. He's gonna say my job is to make our equipment work not force them to switch to different methods

I think it would be wonderful if all VoIP admins and providers
collectively told the people needing fax service that it has been
completely phased out.

I think it would be great if stores stopped selling fax machines and
all remaining fax machines were recycled.

The only reason faxing still exists is because of the few people that
refuse to let it die.
