    faxing

    Hi,

    I was just wondering if anyone knows if its possible to set up some sort
    of remote faxing server using PH P & apache. If not, any other prog
    languages or server technologies? I know .NET can do it by using the
    windows faxing service but i am looking for an alternative.

    Cheers

    that allow you to send things through email that end up on a fax machine.
