Havn't doen that in years - an online fax service sends me my faxes by
email and I sent out faxes through them, not that I ever do that.

The fax-to-e-mail services charge as much as the telco does for a
business line, sometimes more (at least, the ones I can deal with in
this area). Better to set-up hylafax, IMHO.

They can be had for free (or sometimes a one-off setup fee, usually less than a tenner) in the UK. The numbers assigned, while not premium numbers are charged to the caller at "local" or "national" rates, and there is a tiny kick-back to the provider from the fees which covers running costs, depending on the number assigned (ie. 0845 or 0870 - but there's a big resistance to 0870 numbers in the UK - see www.saynoto0870.co.uk)

You can pay more for fancy numbers - eg. ones that map to names on the dial-pad.
