subscription and give you an online fax number for receiving the faxes.

Subject: [...] Can I find a software that receive fax into computer via
standard home phoneline?

And you posted your question to those 4 different newsgroups
because.....?

And you googlegrouped posted your question into the subject instead of/
but not in/ the body because....?

The subject qx sez you want to receive a fax via your homephone. The
body question sez an 'online fax number for receiving the faxes'
whatever that means. You mentioned myfax and efax.

Myfax sends and receives faxes via email.

efax pro and efax plus and efax free are distinguished from each other
and described here http://www.efax.com/en/efax/twa/productOverview

How about if you describe in the body of a news message posted to one
newsgroup which you read, such as 24hoursupport presumably, and no
newsgroups which you /don't/ read a question which compares what you
want and don't want to one of the 3 efax products described in the link
above.

The last time you posted to 24hshd you posted like this:

Newsgroups: 24hoursupport.helpdesk, microsoft.public.outlook,
microsoft.public.outlook. general,
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie5.outlooke xpress

You are a crossposting nut.

Any crossposting with which I disagree
has been trimmed away in my own reply

So if I use the headers of your message to create something useful in
the body, your OS is apparently Win which you didn't state, your type of
computer modem is unknown but which is very important, and you want to
receive faxes 'with your computer'. But you haven't stated what is
going to be the mechanism for the telephone ring to be answered -- ie
will the computer modem have a dedicated fax line to only receive faxes
and the computer will answer every telephone call and listen for fax
tones? -- or do you mean to answer the telephone yourself and listen
for fax tones and then turn on the computer's modem's fax software -- or
what do you mean exactly?

You also haven't stated whether or not the telephone line which will be
published as a fax number is going to be a line dedicated to just
receive faxes or whether or not that line is going to also need to
function as shared as a voice line with or without an answering machine
function, or whether you also want the computer to be an answering
machine.

Do you intend for this computer to be always on, like a dedicated
freestanding fax machine?

It is a fairly common opinion that while sending faxes FROM your
computer with actual "fax software" (of which there are
hundreds) works beautifully, receiving them can be a real pain
in the ass.

Google.

then do a google search on pc fax software.

X-HTTP-UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1;

tells me you are using XP. XP (Pro at least) has a built-in program to
send and receive faxes. You can configure it in control panel.
You did _not_ tell about which modem you have got - a modem is the
prerequisite for sending and receiving faxes over a POT line.

Thanks. I have Conevant SoftK56 Data Fax Modem. I have Win XP Home
Edition Version 2002 Service Pack 2. Does it has built in fax software?

BTW, I have a Brother MFC 3100 Fax, Print 5 in 1 machine, but its
printer broke down 5 times in 3 years. I can still fax out. It cannot
receive fax.

Then you should find a entry under control panel - modems and faxes. Try
the diagnosis, or get the driver off the conexant homepage.

panel - software, and have a look at the available windows addons.
Forgive, I haven't got the English version.
