No. Outlook as an example, can run scripts on incoming emails - create a popup, make a sound, move a file to a folder when it is an attachment. Very simple to do, and can be done now without changes to sipXecs. You can copy the file automagically to a network folder, so all of your incoming faxes are stored in one easy folder.
Personally, I'm not convinced that sipXecs is the do all for an office. There are many tools available to supplement its great features, allowing development of features that truly belong in the PBX.

Yes, but then it is still in your email and still an attachment. A SMB connection makes so much more sense on a network for so many reasons (to me anyway). Sure, I can share an email folder, but then I have to open the email, open the attchment and save it somewhere. An SMB connector to "file" instead of email the attachment can do that. Perhaps email a notificiation it was sent there, or email the attchment AND store it. Then the files are sortable by date/time, etc., since they are already in a file system.

It e-mails the received fax, as opposed to saving it in a folder, but otherwise, seems to be what you're looking for. If you really want the fax->folder ability, If memory serves correctly, a procmail filter can be setup to dump attachments into a folder, which could be shared via SMB, or the folder could simply be a mount point for a remote share on a Windows server.

That is, something that could register as SIP lines and receive calls from DID numbers for fax processing? Preferably, would be a device that would have the ability to receive the fax and then save as a PDF into a designated folder on a Windows file/SMB share. I am curious what solutions others may have found or implemented.
