How to fax from Gmail

If you live in your inbox, you can fax by email. Unlimited Faxing turns an email with an attachment into a fax, and can email incoming faxes back to you.

Set it up once

  1. Start a free trial (approve with PayPal, cancel before it ends).
  2. In your account settings, turn on email-to-fax and add the email address you'll send from. Only addresses you've verified can send faxes, which stops strangers from faxing on your account.

Send a fax from Gmail

  1. Start a new email in Gmail.
  2. In the To field, use the fax number followed by our fax email domain. Your settings page shows the exact format.
  3. Attach the PDF. The subject can become the cover sheet subject.
  4. Send. You'll get an email back when the fax is delivered or if it failed.
