Searching through faxes stored on a server?

Hello all,

Currently we have a fax-to-email service where all faxes come through to us as email attachments - which we then route into a faxes folder.

However, the faxes come through simply as from "Fax System", with subject along the lines of "Fax ID: 0000123456789 Received from 234567" or "from Unknown"

This works great for us, but its really hard to try to locate a specific fax - having to go trough each email and preview each attachment (the received from number usually doesnt show or is only a partial number).

We will be moving everything to an SBS 2003 server over the summer - will this, or anything else, help us to be able to quickly search through our faxes?

What do other companies do?

Cheers
 
That sounds perfect. Yep they come through as PDF's.

So i would install the iFilter on the server, and set it to index an Outlook folder / Regular folder / WSS ? Any links / guides?

Cheers
