No phone line?

Google for "online fax" - you basically email the fax as an attachment and they send it for you, just find a plan that works for you.

I remember you had this problem up a while ago too, quick question...do you want to run your fax separate to your computer or as part of the package?

You may still be able to do this via your mobile.

Winfax is old tech requiring a modem. Think of the difference between PCAnywhere of old and GoToMyPC for remote computing, old required phone line, GoToMyPC completely webbased.

If your mobile phone is like mine, a Palm Treo, it is already a G3 modem which I use via bluetooth to mobile websurf on my laptop when there are no hotspots, I use Verizon's dialup webservice. Pugwash is correct, you could use your mobile phone with Winfax. Only way I know of using broadband is a service like efax or jfax, the latter which I have and costs my company $15 per month. You could probably find a cheaper service with less frills. I can fax directly to a conventional phone no. via the computer, plus our received faxes all come in as email attachments which makes picking them up and reading a whole lot easier than having to wait to get to a fax machine. Another plus is I've had people call my jfax no., leave a voice message which also came as an email attachment. Hope that helps.

Regards.

I have had the same efax account for the last 5 years, and I work in a documentation intensive industry, and I have always been impressed by it. You can get a free account (I think) at www.efax.com

There is another free alternative, but it sucks, called callwave.com I would save you the pain of trying it. Don't be suckered in by faxing over a voip connection using a fax machine (at least in the U.S.). SIP protocol was never meant to handle faxing, and most of the class 5 voip switches in the U.S. are configured in such a way that will most often kill fax transmission if it is more than a page or so.

By best suggestion is efax + a sheet feed scanner if you need to fax multiple pages and often.
