FAX MACHINE becomes OUTDATED – great new services
It’s been a technology-full week as opposed to last week which was musical – not sure which one I prefer… I just wanted to share with you the amazing online FAX facilities now available in SA which I am sure will grow and improve.
Free online faxing has been available in the rest of the world for a while – we are just starting to catch up – click here for a site that will direct you to the <...

For local free online Fax receiving service in SA go to E2 Solutions – I send them to you as they were very quick to help me out. You receive all your faxes for free as emails in your inbox and pay a small fee for sending faxes locally also via your email. But they only provide a local service for free.
I however needed an international online Faxing service – Surprise Surprise – guess who saved the day – TELKOM!!! They have the perfect servie for me.
Having a home office becomes easier and easier. And it’s really affordable. Click here for more info and rates from Telkom.
Here’s the lowdown:
Telkoms Fax product is called MAIL MANAGER PLUS – all you need is a phone line, an Internet connected PC and an e-mail client that supports attachments. You should also have CALL ANSWER (the answering service) which is about R26 to install and R10 a month. They will automatically install the CALL ANSWER service when you apply for MAIL MANAGER PLUS if you don’t have it.
Faxes can only be RECEIVED on this service at present, but they are sent through to your email inbox as a mail attachment which is fantastic – no more lost faxes! Then you just print them out if you need to. The cost of MAIL MANAGER PLUS is R26 to install and about R11 a month.
My installation took about 5 minutes and i received a fax ten minutes later. I highly recommend it . Now if only they could sort out the sending function…
