SmartFax customers may choose to receive fax from their email address.
Fax messages are sent in pdf,tiff or post script format.

Every received fax goes to your inbox and lands a copy to your email. Upon sign up, you are advised to start setting up your account by providing an email address to where you want to receive copies of all your inbound fax messages. This not only serves as a good back-up of all your fax files, but it’s one good way to be notified when a fax arrives. Whether receiving or sending a fax, this feature clearly states that fax machines are now a thing of the past!
