Anne, Thank you for your reply. I am quite frankly unsure of what Tiscali provide as a fax service.
However, I do find www.fido.net an absolute gem, in so far as by free registration with them, you get a separate fax number to which messages may be faxed by all and sundry. These are then forwarded to your e-mail box as pdf or tiff files. I do recommend that you tick the pdf format at sign up, as the tiff file will not open other than the first page for some unknown reason. I use this system quite a lot and it works well for me. Best wishes, Malcolm Candlish.
