How To Send A Fax From Your Computer

1. Compose an email to (number)@faxage.com. For example, addressing an email to 3035551212@faxage.com would mean that you want to send a fax to 303-555-1212.
2. Attach the file or files you wish to send. These can be any combination of our supported file types. See the Frequently Asked Questions below for a list.
3. Send the email.
4. The FAXAGE system will send you an acknowledgement of receipt of your email and will send you a status email when the job has completed.

Send Fax Through Email

Here's an example of how fax from email might be used: Say you have a legal document that you want to fax to an attorney, but you would prefer to send email to fax the document to the recipient. If the document is already on the computer, you can simply attach it in your email and address the email to the attorney's fax number at the faxage.com domain. If it's a physical document, you do the same thing after scanning the document into your computer.

You can email multiple attached documents per fax, and you can fax to multiple users simultaneously, all from your email.

1. Log in to the FAXAGE website.
2. Click 'send' on the menu.
3. Follow the prompts to specify destination, upload files, etc.

Send Fax Through Website

Here's a closer look at sending a fax through the website. Similar to how you send a fax through email, you can upload your documents, designate the recipients by their fax number, and send multiple documents to multiple recipients simultaneously. The website fully supports uploading or manually entering a fax list, making it easy to send faxes to everyone on your list in a single send operation.

Further benefits of the website include the ease with which you can track all of the faxes you've sent and received. Even faxes sent through one of the other options (email, Microsoft Office, or API) appear in your website status tracking. Plus, if you visit our website from your smart phone or tablet, you have a great way to manage all of your faxes on the go.

A: FAXAGE supports sending faxes to all 50 United States and Canada only at this time. Off-shore and International (other than Canada) destinations are not supported.

A: Unfortunately, it is the nature of an Internet fax service that we can only support sending electronic files. Generally, people either use a fax machine to fax these to their FAXAGE number, which results in an electronic copy that can be re-faxed, or they use a scanner to scan them in and then fax them.

A: A status email is sent to you for each fax you send when the job completes (either success or failure - including the reason such as a busy number if it fails). In addition, you can log in to the FAXAGE web site and see a spreadsheet-like status report for all the faxes you send. This status report can also be downloaded into Excel for further analysis.

A: Our system can technically support uploading or manually entering a 'list' into the website. You can then send using the website interface, which will allow you to send the same fax to everyone on your list in a single send operation. Note that our Terms of Service do prohibit sending unsolicited faxes. List-based faxing is supported for those who are in full compliance with all required regulations in doing so.

A: FAXAGE supports up to 250 pages or 64 Megabytes per outgoing fax.
