The easiest way would be for you to use a third party fax API solution.
Something like this:

If you dont want to use a third party API, you can always use windows
fax viewer.. its very simple and very steady. I have used it for my
project and it works just great. You will also be able to receive
faxes. Programming is very very simple.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...using_3u5v.asp

That will help you.

This is the code in VB it can be modified to .net (see how simple it
is)

'Initialise a few things
'sending Fax
Dim objFaxDocument As New FAXCOMEXLib.Fax Document
Dim objFaxServer As New FAXCOMEXLib.Fax Server
Dim objSender As FaxSender
Dim JobID As Variant

'Receiving Fax
Dim WithEvents objFaxServer1 As FAXCOMEXLib.Fax Server
Attribute objFaxServer1.V B_VarHelpID = -1

Private Sub Form_Load()
objFaxServer.Co nnect ""
objFaxServer.Li stenToServerEve nts fsetIN_ARCHIVE Or fsetACTIVITY Or
fsetCONFIG Or fsetDEVICE_STAT US Or fsetFXSSVC_ENDE D Or fsetIN_QUEUE Or
fsetINCOMING_CA LL Or fsetNONE Or fsetOUT_ARCHIVE Or fsetOUT_QUEUE
'job entered archive
Set objFaxServer1 = objFaxServer
End Sub

Private Sub Command1_Click( )
'Send a file-- sending COMPLETE
On Error GoTo Error_Handler
objFaxDocument. Body = Trim(Text1.Text ) 'This should point to the
document or img to be sent
objFaxDocument. DocumentName = "My First Fax"
objFaxDocument. Priority = fptHIGH
objFaxDocument. Recipients.Add "TO_THE_NUMBER_ YOU_WANT", "Bud"
objFaxDocument. AttachFaxToRece ipt = True
objFaxDocument. Note = "Here is the info you requested"
objFaxDocument. Subject = "Today's fax"
JobID = objFaxDocument. ConnectedSubmit (objFaxServer)
Exit Sub

Hi All, I am trying to understand the blocking method socket.Send(). The call blocks as expected, but does this mean, it returnes after the underlying TCP layer got a confirmation, that the send data was received by the socket on the remote end? Can I count on that? Do I understand TCP correctly in that, it gives confirmation ? I do not expect, that a .Net based receiver got that data when socket.Send() terminates!

Hello, I have read that send() may not send whole message and returns the nuber of bytes sent, so that we can handle the rest of the message. Is it true, because i have tested sending even 1MB long message by the Internet connection and it was sent in one message - send() returned length of whole message?

smtpClient.Send(message) is causing me problems as per specifics in the trace below. Email is sent but not without this error typically upon sending the second email, but sometimes when running the app, even the first time. The application will be required to be sending out repeated emails, about one every second or two. Must this be done asynchronously? Thank you. -Greg I get the generic error messages;
