    TMNT ... have been using efax.com for years at $30 per quarter aka $10 p/m. They give you a fax number and they send an email with the fax received as a pdf. You can also log into their website to check faxes and send faxes (just can't send faxes to 1300 or 1800 numbers). I found it the best...
