Maybe it is possible to attach an applescript to the Fax Folder? I don't know if a fax would trigger this, and I haven't tested this... (* Folder gets a red label, and a dialog is displayed *) on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving these_items tell application "Finder" set label index of this_folder to 2 display dialog "Faxes received" end tell end adding folder items to (* When the folder is opened, the red label is removed *) on opening folder this_folder tell application "Finder" set label index of this_folder to 0 end tell end opening folder

  Apple has posted a technical document on how to get Panther to notify you when a new fax arrives:

  I just published a little installer for a folder action, it notifies the user and opens the Fax in Preview: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/21692
  It's freeware. Hope this helps someone!
