I assume so...don't know though.

I would try this and see if it does that...I *think* most Voice/Fax modems 
should come with software for this purpose. I got some software with my 
Supra/Diamond 56k modem called "FaxTalk Messenger."
I realize you don't live here in the US, and I don't know what sort of phone 
system you have over there, *but* here in the US, we can have different phone 
numbers assigned to one phone line and have a "distinctive ring" (and that's 
what that service is called) for each number. Then you get a "black box" 
which will detect the different ring patterns and pass the call along to the 
appropriate device depending on which phone line is ringing. You would 
probably need at least two separate modems for this...one for voice and fax 
and one for Data/BBS OR (using something like BGFAX along with your mailer) 
one for voice only and one for FAX/DATA.
BGFAX works well with Binkley, I'm told, although I've never tried it. The 
ONLY time I used my mailer to receive a Fax, I was running Portal of Power 
which has built-in fax reception capability...
Good luck!
