Use dialing rules when you send a fax. As long as you store your numbers in
International (Canonical) format, dialing rules will take care area codes
and the like.

Windows XP. Fax Wizard. When I select a local recepient to send a fax
to
using the addresses in Outlook, it wants to use the area code which is
not
needed. How do I turn this off?


When the number is dialed with the area code, an automated recording
comes on and says 1, 0, or the area code is not needed in placing this call.
