How to configure Email to Fax users and incoming fax notifications

Choose who can fax by email and who gets notified when a fax arrives.

An account administrator needs to make these changes.

Sign in to home.westfax.com, select the applicable fax number, and open Settings > Fax to Email Settings under Fax Configuration.

Allow a user to send faxes by email

  1. Under Allowed Email to Fax Users, select New.
  2. Enter the user’s sending email address.
  3. Choose whether the user should receive feedback emails about fax submissions or delivery status.
  4. Save the entry.

Send a user incoming fax notifications

  1. Under Inbound Fax Notifications, select New.
  2. Enter the user’s email address.
  3. Choose Notification Only, or include the fax as a PDF or TIFF attachment.
  4. Save the entry.

Permission to send faxes by email and settings for receiving incoming fax notifications are configured separately.
