Pete, it was working fine yesterday when I responded.
I didn't send to the fax number it came from.
I sent it to the business fax number for the one who wants me to contact them to get insurance with them.

With the advent of IP phone technology this type of operation can scale up pretty massively for outbound blitzes with little means of doing much to them in response.

The PDF's do take up space though so virtual faxing to them enough content could chew up their disk space assuming they actually set up to receive and or store the results.
