[AccessD] Faxing Software

Hi Rocky and Kathryn

And the free version allows you to receive the faxes in a stupid proprietary format (efx) only - which you need a special client app to view or convert. The paid version allows for PDF or TIFF.

The free version has a limit of receiving just a few faxes per month and you
can't send any. The phone number they assign to you can be anyplace in the
country. For instance, mine is area code 860 which is Bristol CT. So someone
who want to send me a fax will likely have a long distance call to make. It
gets turned into an efax image and sent to my email address.

They make money by hoping that if you like their service you will upgrade to
the full version.
