When I try to send a fax to e.g. 10 contacts the faxing halts after having
sent the fax to one, two or three contacts.

It seems that even if all looks OK in the send fax wizard, only the first
couple of contacts appear in the outbox of the fax console.

Any ideas about what the problem might be?

Already answered in your previous thread. Windows XP Fax was not designed
for and does not support sending to multiple recipients.

Well, I managed to send to 30 recipients yesterday without problems. But for
some reason it will not let me today...

And if the Windows XP Fax was not designed for sending to multiple
recipients, why do they write in the help file, quote "You can send a fax to
single or multiple recipients."??

Help files are overly optimistic and rarely accurate. Anyone who has ever
used the Microsoft Fax modules knows full well that it is notoriously
unreliable when it comes to sending to multiple recipients. No one I know
would use it for that purpose. You should use a fax board and robust fax
software.

OK, it seems like I have to give up using Windows XP Fax for what I want to
do.

Any suggestions for programs that will do the job?
