Can you send a fax from apple mail

Unfortunately, Apple Mail does not have a built-in faxing feature. However, there are a few workarounds to send a fax from your Mac using Apple Mail:

Method 1: Use a third-party fax service

  1. Sign up for a fax service like eFax, RingCentral, or MyFax, which allows you to send faxes online.
  2. Create a new email in Apple Mail and attach the document you want to fax.
  3. In the "To" field, enter the fax number in the format [email protected] (replace faxnumber with the actual fax number).
  4. Add a subject and any additional text you want to include.
  5. Send the email.

The fax service will receive the email and convert it into a fax, which will be sent to the recipient's fax machine.

Method 2: Use a fax app

  1. Download and install a fax app like FaxZero, FaxBurner, or iFax, which allows you to send faxes from your Mac.
  2. Create a new fax in the app and attach the document you want to fax.
  3. Enter the recipient's fax number and any additional information.
  4. Send the fax.

These apps will use your internet connection to send the fax to the recipient's fax machine.

Method 3: Use a printer with fax capabilities

  1. Connect a printer to your Mac that has fax capabilities, such as a Brother or Canon printer.
  2. Open Apple Mail and create a new email with the document you want to fax attached.
  3. Print the email using the printer's fax feature.
  4. The printer will send the fax to the recipient's fax machine.

Please note that these methods may require a subscription or a one-time payment, and the quality of the fax may vary depending on the service or app you use.
