#EFAX MESSENGER RINGING SOUND CODE#

Ideally, you'll want a number in your area code (our choice was 303), but you'll have to settle for what's available. Once sign-up is complete, eFax assigns you a phone number for receiving faxes. The next step is to download the 3.2MB eFax Messenger Plus applet for Windows (Messenger for Macs is 683K), which provides much but not all of the functionality of the better fax apps, such as WinFax Pro. Simply go to the eFax home page, click the Sign Up icon, enter your personal information-name, e-mail address, credit card number, and so on-and you're on your way. (eFax routes incoming faxes as file attachments to your e-mail in-box.) And since eFax assigns you a dedicated fax number, you can receive faxes without tying up your phone line. Not everyone has a fax machine, and eFax Plus lets you send documents directly from your PC to any fax machine in the world. Internet faxing may sound like an oxymoron-why not just e-mail somebody the original file?-but it makes sense if you're truly Web savvy. The solution: eFax Plus, an Internet-based faxing service that routes faxes via e-mail. Or perhaps you travel often and want to send and receive faxes from anywhere. You want your new PC to send and receive faxes, but it doesn't have a fax modem. Let's say you just bought a 2GHz Pentium 4 with all the bells and whistles, including a high-speed Internet connection.
