The Hosted Fax feature allows you send and receive faxes using any email client.
How to Send a Fax
- Compose an email to 1<phone-number>@faxhd.com
Example: To send a fax to (347) 329-1266, the email address would be 13473291266@faxhd.com - Attach the document that you would like faxed to the email. PDF and TIFF files work best, but DOC, TXT and RTF can also be sent.
- When the email is received by the Fax System, you will receive a QUEUED SUCCESSFULLY email that indicates that the fax is ready to be sent.
- When the fax is complete, you will receive a SUCCESS email.
Notes:
- Up to five e-mail addresses can be authorized to send faxes from a given phone number
