When you think of fax software, inevitably you think of Symantec'sWinFax Pro, a utility that's been around for many moons, but has evolved beyondrecognition since its first release. That said, its basic faxing functionalityremains unchanged and as solid as ever. Along the way, it has picked up someuseful bells and whistles. The new version now can be set up as a fax server onsmall peer networks. It originally integrated with Microsoft Exchange andOutlook, and the new version extends this integration to Outlook Express and thecontact manager, Goldmine. Now, you can "e-mail" a fax to a recipient--thisoddish option sends a 60 KB fax-viewer program as an attachment with the faxfile.Read more

Winfax Pro 10.03 a winner after a false start
Initial comment when using Motorola SM56 Modem:
WinFax Pro 10 Problems
I started with Winfax Pro v4.0 for Networks. It was hard to install, configure and manage. But it worked for me once the hard part was over. I have a customer who I upgraded to v10.0. We went from Win98, Winfax Pro 4.1 and a Celeron 400 to Win2K, Winfax Pro v10.0 in a P4-2.0 Ghz machine. Everything on the machine pretty much works as expected... EXCEPT WINFAX PRO 10! WinFax is not a winner
Struggle to install, struggle to keep working, some nice features if they will work when you want them.Read more
