@ECHO OFF
ECHO    The biggest misconception about PRIVATE SECRETARY (or any similar program) 
ECHO is that is it (or could be) an AUTOMATIC fax router/switch. It is impossible 
ECHO for PRIVATE SECRETARY (or any program alone) to automatically detect whether 
ECHO an incoming call was a fax or voice call without the distinctive ringing 
ECHO services.  It can (and is done) without the distinctive ringing services with 
ECHO hardware and firmware you can purchase. These devices are known as automatic 
ECHO fax routers and similar names and can be found at most electronic and business 
ECHO speciality stores. I have seen prices ranging from $100 to $250. I have also 
ECHO seen prices as low as $69 in discount catalogs. Shop wisely. 
ECHO    The second most-often asked question will surely be how to configure 
ECHO PRIVATE SECRETARY to work in the background. PRIVATE SECRETARY does NOT work 
ECHO in the background. PRIVATE SECRETARY was developed as a modem productivity 
ECHO tool - to be used when the user is away from their computer.  
ECHO    The last point we would like to clear is our fax number, 817-249-4284. This 
ECHO line is a FAX LINE ONLY. It is NEVER answered by voice. Also, we receive 
ECHO dozens of calls each week promising registrations if we'll only answer their 
ECHO question immediately by phone or fax.  Many months back we did a survey and 
ECHO found that we were developing a large phone bill and a stack of promises. If 
ECHO you are a non-registered user by all means fax us your questions, but please 
ECHO include your proper mailing address for a reply by mail. We do offer (often 
ECHO same-day) fax response to REGISTERED users.
