Receiving Faxes
Faxes sent from a fax machine to a Fax2Mail number will be received and automatically
converted into a PDF or TIFF file format according to the account preferences at the
time. Once converted they will then be forwarded as attachments to emails and delivered
to your email inbox.
Faxes will appear in your inbox from 'Documanager powered by Fax2Mail'. The subject will
be '(X) page document from (the fax number)'. The email will have the fax attached in the
chosen file format which can then be opened and viewed.
As with an email faxes can then be forwarded, deleted, saved, or printed if necessary.
All fax numbers provided by Fax2Mail are registered with the Fax Preference Service which
almost guarantees that you will not receive SPAM faxes. If however unsolicited and unwanted
faxes are received Fax2Mail can block the senders fax number stopping nuisance faxes. |
Sending Faxes
Sending a fax is as easy as sending an email because all you need to do to send a fax is
email the fax number you want to send to. So for example to send a fax to 0844 114 2000 all
you need to do is email 08441141000@fax2mail.com your email will be received by the
Fax2Mail servers and converted into a fax and then delivered to the fax machine.
You can send faxes with attachments or you can just type a message in the body of the
email. Like email if you want to send the same fax to several recipients at same time
you simply add the addresses you want to send to separating them with a semicolon.
