Fax by e mail
You're looking for a way to send a fax via email!
There are a few ways to do this, and I'll outline a few options for you:
Option 1: Online Fax Services
You can use online fax services that allow you to send faxes via email. Here's how:
- Sign up for an online fax service like eFax, RingCentral, or FaxZero.
- Create an account and set up your fax number.
- Compose an email to the recipient's email address, but instead of attaching a file, enter the fax number in the "To" field, followed by "@yourfaxservice.com" (e.g., "[email protected]").
- Attach your fax document to the email.
- Send the email.
The online fax service will receive the email, convert the attachment to a fax, and send it to the recipient's fax machine.
Option 2: Fax Apps
You can also use fax apps on your smartphone or computer to send faxes via email. Here's how:
- Download a fax app like FaxBurner, FaxApp, or eFax Messenger.
- Create an account and set up your fax number.
- Compose an email to the recipient's email address, but instead of attaching a file, enter the fax number in the "To" field, followed by "@yourfaxapp.com" (e.g., "[email protected]").
- Attach your fax document to the email.
- Send the email.
The fax app will receive the email, convert the attachment to a fax, and send it to the recipient's fax machine.
Option 3: Email-to-Fax Gateways
Some email providers, like Gmail or Outlook, offer email-to-fax gateways that allow you to send faxes via email. Here's how:
- Compose an email to the recipient's email address, but instead of attaching a file, enter the fax number in the "To" field, followed by "@youremailprovider.com" (e.g., "[email protected]").
- Attach your fax document to the email.
- Send the email.
The email provider will receive the email, convert the attachment to a fax, and send it to the recipient's fax machine.
Remember to check the recipient's fax number and email address before sending the fax, and make sure you have the necessary permissions to send faxes via email.
