Fax Trunk Settings

Overview

Fax trunk settings include the trunk name and inbound/outbound fax e-mail notifications.

You can change the names of your FAXStation fax trunks to help you identify them. By default, the trunks will have generic names such as "Trunk 1" and "Trunk 2." 

You can also set up e-mail notifications on your FAXStation trunks. You can configure notifications on a per-DID basis and set up separate notifications for inbound vs. outbound faxing. These e-mail notifications will include a copy of the fax as an attachment.
