Installed a little SBS2k8 system on an ML115 for a small company a few weeks ago.

All has been going well with it and they'd like to look at using the fax services offered by it.

Is this just a simple case that I need to stuff a good old fashioned 56k fax modem in the back of it and run a couple of wizards to get it to deliver faxes to an exchange mailbox and also print a hardcopy to one of the printers on the network?

Anybody running this able to recommend a particular type of modem or will I be OK salvaging some old bit of crap out the back of a machine I have lying around here and plugging that in.

Or if someone wants to recommend a 3rd party alternative to the built in stuff for this I'm open to suggestions. It is for very light use, a few faxes a day at most and to be honest more for receiving than sending.
 
Thanks chaps, actually have a couple of decent USR 56k modems in a box somewhere but they're serial. Might give a USB to serial adapter a try and see how it works out.
