You can't just use an app, you need a modem to send the fax. Buy and internal modem, and use the built-in widows fax to send it.

An alternative would be to use a fax provider like, faxfx.net or faxmachine.co.za but you'll have to buy credits from them them to send faxes.

I cannot see the point of a fax in this day and age. I also often have the same problem with people asking me to fax something or wanting to send me a fax. They are shocked when I tell them I dont have a fax and to use email instead.

Fax have proof of reciept on both sides,which is a big plus..
and real documents are hard to modify..

Many companies won't accept anything other than a hand signed document, and for some odd reason think that a scanned in copy could lead to fraud, whereas fax can't. It's basically a mentality thing, and they need to be taught / trained on these things properly.

Also, when you do a bank transfer and sit with a signed slip, the only way to get it anywhere is to fax it, or scan it in, and fax it

the cheapest way, get an old dialup modem and use a PC fax program - most OS's have it built in. fax-to-email normally requires you to buy a lot of credits upfront which you'll probably never use up, unless you actually need to fax a lot.
