2008-04-21 20:10:01 - The service is ideal for remote workers and people who travel because they can receive faxes anywhere they are able to access email.

Appia Communications today announced that it will now provide fax-to-email service nationwide.

With this service, faxes are delivered to an email inbox. 'The service is ideal for remote workers and people who travel because they can receive faxes anywhere they are able to access email,' said Jason Ulm, Vice President of Sales.

'The other advantage of the Appia service is that it

allows users to set up local fax numbers almost anywhere in the U.S.,' continued Ulm. 'Other services have a much smaller footprint.'

Fax-to-email service cuts costs as well. There is no need to invest in a fax machine to receive faxes. Printing only the documents needed saves on paper and toner. Electronic archiving makes it easy to retrieve them when needed.

Appia offers many other time- and cost-saving services, including voicemail-to-email, low-cost audio conferencing, and free Web conferencing.
