Default Faxing to Multiple Recipients Fails. (2) OK, (3) or more BAD

I am using Outlook 2003, Windows XP Home Fax Console..

I print a Word 2003 file to the fax...the fax wizard comes up.

I select "Multiple Recipients" in the Fax Wizard. I put in roughly 30
address (fax only). they show up, I finish and then when I go to the
fax console only (2)-(3) names show up and it just shows pending.
they never fax out.

If I just select (2) Multiple Recipients...it finishes and then faxes
everything off as normal.

I seem to recall the first time trying it...the 30 names showing up
properly...but the fax numbers were formatted incorrectly. Since then
the names never transfer over to the fax console.

I've seen several similar reports. Although it is not documented, I suspect
this is the simply the result of the fact that this program was designed for
occasional personal use over a single fax modem only and was never intended
for business application. You should be using third party fax software to
send to that many recipients.

Is there a fax program somone could recommend. It's business use but
I would just send to 50-60 people a few times a month. And then
individual people on a daily basis. It would be nice if all the info
went to my inbox. I used to use Faxmaker...but I can't justify the
investment for personal use.
