VPOP3 FaxServer
The VPOP3 FaxServer is a new facility we have added to our portfolio starting with VPOP3 1.4.4 beta.
To use the VPOP3 FaxServer you need to be a registered user (5 user licence or larger) of VPOP3 Standard
or VPOP3 Enterprise and be running VPOP3 1.4.4 beta or later. The FaxServer software is an extra charge
option - see our pricelist for prices, and is totally
integrated with VPOP3 once the addon is installed and a licence key entered.
You can evaluate it for 30 days if necessary to make a purchasing decision - see our
download page for more details.
Faxing from users' PCs is currently performed using a print driver. So any document you can print, you
can now fax.
The VPOP3 FaxServer software needs a modem which is connected to a standard COM port (eg not a USB modem), or
is an Internal modem which emulates a COM port in hardware, and
can send FAXes using standard AT commands without needing any Windows drivers (eg not a "WinModem"). The
FaxServer software talks directly to the modem through a COM port without using the Windows modem drivers.
See our comparison chart for a list of features and comparison with FAXMaker for VPOP3.

- We use the US Robotics external '56k Faxmodem' for the majority of our testing, but most other external
fax modems should work, and internal fax modems with their own processor should work.
