FAX ISSUE

[lukad2000]

I set up a public folder in Microsoft Outlook 2003 for incoming fax. I
need to set up message alert to notify me when the fax comes in. I am
running a windows 2003 fax server and windows XP as client.

But Windows XP Fax does not integrate with Outlook.

Either use the Folder Assistant or see http://www.slipstick.com/addins/notify.htm for third-party tools.

I doubt this is a fax issue. Rather you appear to have a question about how
to use rules in a Public Folder.
Windows XP Fax cannot even route faxes to Outlook.

Can you tell me how to use the folder assistant?

You'll find it on the Properties dialog for the folder. It's pretty self-explanatory. In your scenario, you'd use it to forward the fax message to people who need to know.
