    Provide your number without the 1 the sender would add 1 if they call via long distance. I think it works with and without the dashes

    Thanks for posting this video. I have a question, if someone wouldn’t mind helping me out — if I use Windows XP faxing to receive faxes (Start > All Programs > Accessories > Communications > Fax > Fax Console) what would I use for my fax number that I could give to someone who wanted to fax me something? Do I use my telephone # and what format would I use e.g. 1-210-123-4567 (with dashes)? Thanks to anyone who can help out.

    I have no install video for Vista, you would be better off using an old computer just for this purpose.

    All the best,

    Kevin
