Is there a Fax Console for Dummies Book???

Just Kidding about the title but... I'm not sure if I'm doing wrong or if I'm
just not as computer literate as I think I am. I am trying to send a single
page fax via Fax Console to multiple recipients and it only sends the fax to
the last two listings on my recipients list then reverts back to the "Ready
to Send" on the fax monitor screen. Now I know that the fax monitor and the
fax console are two different monsters but I KNOW that the dimb thing is only
sending out two faxes per list and the list is about 16 different numbers....
Please help me keep my hair and figure this thing out.

Not that I know of but we should ask if Hal and Russ want to write one.

I've seen several similar reports. Although it is not documented, I suspect
this is the simply the result of the fact that this program was designed for
occasional personal use over a single fax modem only and was never intended
for business application. You should be using third party fax software to
send to that many recipients.

Hmmm... Guess I'll just have to live with the frustration then. Can I suggest
NOT openly promoting the multiple recipients feature or removing it all
together???

The closest I know of is Bruce Sanderson's FAX FAQ:

The Fax console is installed from 'Control Panel|Add/Remove
Programs/Add/Remove Windows Components''; installation usually requires your
Windows XP CD. What exactly have you tried, and what happened?
