message: the section with headline "Fax Voip T38 Fax & Voice" was a shameless advertisment for a single commercial product. i removed it.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.16.253.205 (talk) 22:11, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  removed advertisment 

message: In the intro:
:The term "Internet fax" encompasses "web fax" and "email fax," along with VoIP fax, which refers to the use of Voice over Internet Protocol to send a fax. However, Internet fax should not be confused with IP fax.
IP fax is a circular redirect right back to Internet fax. This isn't helpful if the intent is to claim the two to be somehow different. Tell me why I shouldn't confuse Internet fax with IP fax or I may just decide to confuse the two to spite you.
Furthermore, "Taking advantage of an established LAN/WAN infrastructure, IP fax reduces or eliminates costly connection and transmission fees." is pure marketing speak. The question of whether a prospective user already has a LAN in place is speculation. The claim that PSTN fees are "costly" is a statement of opinion. Neither belong in an encyclopaedia.

replies: text: Agreed. The circular redirect is particularly confusing. Possibly a link to the explanatory section lower in the page is in order? DanielRenfro 13:05, 25 April 2017 (UTC)

Mention why a person cannot just type a fax number into a cellphone app,
and then the app dials the number and initiates the modem conversation with the fax machine,
and transmits the document. Jidanni (talk) 20:14, 6 February 2020 (UTC)
