Routing Incoming Faxes to a User's Exchange Mailbox in SBS

The fax service is started with the administrator account as its service account. By default, the only profiles to which can be used to route incoming faxes are those to which the administrator account has permission.

This article describes the steps required to select a mailbox other than the administrator mailbox to receive the faxes.

To route incoming faxes to another user's mailbox, follow these steps:

1. Grant the administrator account user level permission to the user's Exchange mailbox.
2. Create a new Exchange profile for the administrator account on the Small Business Server computer that points to the user's mailbox.
3. On the Receive tab of the Fax Server tool in Control Panel, place a check in the Send to local inbox check box. In the drop-down menu, select the newly created profile.
