Pccw email fax setting

PCCW is a telecommunications company in Hong Kong, and they offer email fax services to their customers. Here are the general steps to set up email fax services with PCCW:

Step 1: Check if you have a PCCW email account

Make sure you have a valid PCCW email account (e.g., @pccw.com, @pccwmail.com, etc.). If you don't have one, you can sign up for a new account on the PCCW website.

Step 2: Enable Email Fax

Log in to your PCCW email account and go to the "Settings" or "Options" menu. Look for the "Fax" or "Email Fax" option and enable it. You may need to provide your fax number and other details.

Step 3: Configure Your Email Client

To send and receive faxes using your email client, you'll need to configure your email settings. Here are the general settings you'll need:

• Incoming Fax Email Address: This is the email address that PCCW will use to send you incoming faxes. It's usually in the format of [your fax number]@pccw.com (e.g., [email protected]).
• Outgoing Fax Email Address: This is the email address that you'll use to send faxes from your email client. It's usually in the format of [your fax number]@pccw.com (e.g., [email protected]).
• Fax Server: This is the server that PCCW uses to handle fax transmissions. The default fax server is usually "fax.pccw.com".
• Port: The default port for fax transmission is usually 5567.

Step 4: Set Up Your Email Client

To set up your email client, follow these general steps:

• Open your email client (e.g., Microsoft Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird, etc.).
• Go to the "Accounts" or "Settings" menu and select "New" or "Add Account".
• Choose "Email" or "POP3" as the account type.
• Enter your PCCW email address and password.
• Configure the incoming and outgoing mail servers as follows:
  • Incoming Mail Server: pop.pccw.com (or your ISP's POP3 server)
  • Outgoing Mail Server: smtp.pccw.com (or your ISP's SMTP server)
  • Port: 5567 (or your ISP's default port)
• Save your changes and test your email account.

Step 5: Send and Receive Faxes

Once you've set up your email client, you can send and receive faxes using your email account. To send a fax, simply compose a new email and attach the fax document. Set the "To" field to the recipient's fax number, and make sure the "Subject" field is empty. Send the email, and PCCW will transmit the fax to the recipient.

To receive faxes, simply check your email account regularly for incoming faxes. You can also set up your email client to automatically download new emails, including faxes.

Note: These are general steps, and the exact settings may vary depending on your PCCW email account and email client. If you're having trouble setting up your email fax service, you may want to contact PCCW's customer support for assistance.
