Welcome New User.... to the │ FAX-DOOR!│
└──────────┘
FAX-DOOR will automatically set up an account for you. Using FAX-DOOR
you may FAX any ASCII document to a local FAX machine, FREE!
If you wish to FAX long distance, you must apply for Long Distance
access. A minimum pre-payment of $10.00 will establish Long Distance
access with 5 credits. A "credit" is a page. The door automatically
keeps track of your credits, and will not allow you to fax long distance
if you run out.
Should you exceed your prepaid page limit, the door will suspend your
FAXing privileges until you pay your outstanding balance. Overdue
accounts will find their expiry dates adjusted.
FAX-DOOR can Fax standard ASCII files, like those created with a text
editor like Qedit. If you are using a wordprocessor, you should save
your file in ASCII format.
FAX-DOOR will create your own personal dialing directory of 10 entries
to make your FAXing quicker. You may also enter a number of your choice
without adding it to your personal dialing directory.
FAX-DOOR sends a short covering letter, indicating who the Fax should be
delivered to, who the Fax is from, and today's date. This does count as
a page that can charged against you if you do Long Distance faxing. If
you dialed a number from your Dialing Directory the TO: field will be
automatically pulled from the directory entry. If you entered a manually
entered number, you will be asked to input a name.
The steps involved to send a FAX are:
1) Upload the file you wish to be FAXed. This file must be in ASCII
format.
2) Call up the Dialing Directory and select a phone number from your
personal directory or enter a new number.
3) FAX-DOOR will actually exit and send your Fax while you wait. Please
be PATIENT! Once the Fax has completed its duties, you will be advised
of the transfer status, your personal account will be updated, and any
leftover files will be deleted. At this point, you are back in the door
and may upload another file to FAX or Quit back to the BBS.
I hope you'll enjoy this new service. Another feature for members of
The Phantom BBS, providing the World at your fingertips!
