I'm curious about this as well.

This was cut from the public launch due to ongoing issues with it in BETA.

Since it was always having issues and we never advertised it as a feature with the fax service, we opted to hold off on it until it's going to work consistently. Then we'll roll it out as a bonus feature.

We're somewhat limited in what we can do with that feature to make it work more reliably without triggering some patent issues so there's no easy answer for it.

It'll come back at some point...just needs to work well when it does.

BTW, if anyone in the BETA reallly needs this, we can re-enable it for your accounts, but it is not officially a support feature so you may see problems with it and we aren't officially offering it yet.

Just send in tickets and a developer will re-enable it next week.

Thanks Tim, that would be great.

I'll send in a ticket.

I didn't use it heavily, but all the times I did, the fax was always delivered very quickly and always delivered.
