Your Fax Inbox and Email Forwarding

Updated July 24, 2026

Once you have a dedicated number, every fax sent to it is captured automatically — no machine to leave switched on.

The inbox

Received faxes appear in your dashboard Inbox within moments of arriving. Each entry shows the sender's number, date, and page count, and opens as a PDF you can view, download, or print.

Email notifications and forwarding

Two related settings:

  • Email notifications — a heads-up email whenever a fax arrives.
  • Forwarding email — set an address in Settings and the received fax itself is forwarded there as a PDF attachment. Point it at your work inbox, a shared team mailbox, or a document-management intake address.

Retention

Received faxes stay available in your inbox so you can re-download them later; the PDF is the document of record.

Frequently asked questions

Can I forward received faxes to a shared team mailbox?

Yes — the forwarding email can be any address, including group mailboxes like billing@yourcompany.com.

What format are received faxes?

PDF — one file per fax, with all pages included.

Ready to send a fax?

No fax machine, no subscription — your first fax is free.
