PHP Faxing
Is there a way to send faxes via the internet using PHP? If so, could someone point me in the right direction. I have no clue where to start.

PHP Faxing
I want to send out mass faxes via the web to clients to confirm orders(Must be faxes!). I want to try and avoid internet fax service sites and figure out a way to do it on my end. May need to transmit hundreds or thousands of faxes daily. Is there some type of fax conversion tool to send faxes via the web instead of going through a fax/modem??

Fax Applications
I would like to get a reliable fax application, but I have not been able to find one that sends mass faxes via the internet "directly to the reciepients fax machine" (not using a modem). Any ideas? Maybe voice over ip?
Re: Fax Applications
The reason my client went with fax.co.uk was the reliability. They send you an email report of how many attempts they make, when it got through, how long the call took, and what was sent. Running your own email->fax gateway is possible, but its a pain in the arse, and (I found) very unreliable. Although theres a cost involved using someone else, you do at least have someone to shout at if it goes wrong (which, in the past 18 months with fax.co.uk, it hasn't).jbstone713 wrote:I would like to get a reliable fax application, but I have not been able to find one that sends mass faxes via the internet "directly to the reciepients fax machine" (not using a modem).
