RE: Outbound fax from 400

The thing you will also want to consider is the security of the servers
doing the faxing when using internet based solutions.

Douglas,

I thought I had seen .08 per page on their web page.

You might be correct in that it's .05 per 30secs.  That seems to ring a
bell.  As I vaguely recall looking at logs where our mostly 1 page faxes
were being billed .05 or .10 each depending on basically how fast the
customers equipment was.

Note that it's been a couple of years since I worked at the company I set
this up at.  But I do know that the email-to-fax via Maxemail is still in
use.


HTH,

Charles Wilt
