Just How Does An eMail Fax Work?
Internet Fax works by using your email. You receive and send faxes by using your email system and the Internet. First, you must set up a local or toll-free number with one of the Internet Fax Service Providers. Then you use this fax number to receive and send faxes via email. Most, if not all, Internet Fax services will let you use an online site (Web Interface) to do your faxing. Or you can use an email program like Windows Outlook. Many Internet Fax Providers also give you a free desktop application download that you can place on your desktop to send and receive faxes. Most will also work with Windows Office Documents. You can access your faxes wherever you have the Internet, this is great for busy mobile professionals, onsite workers, business travelers or just the ordinary person on vacation.
