Maxemail for a Reliable, Cheap "Fax Line"

If you still have a fax line at home it's time to move on. For the last three or four years we have been using maxemail. For $24 per year (yes year) you get a phone number that receives faxes and sends you a copy as a PDF via email. We just use our regular land line to send faxes, since that's still pretty convenient. It's been rock solid the whole time, and easily paid for itself in a couple of months, since we disconnected the second land-line.

I know that faxes are going the way of the dinosaur, but I suspect they will remain a valuable tool for another few years (especially when dealing with medical insurance, doctors, mortgage companies -- i.e. life).
