No I have not. But it should work if you can install MS Exchange on NT There is no fax service for NT in Ms exchange What approche would you use to batch fax a report form with exchange??? I'm looking for option because when you use the FAX rendering subsystem, exchange always start the server application, this means that if you fax a Word document, it will start Word and and print the document before it will fax.
