A device that uses IP networks to transport faxes instead of PSTN as its means of transporting a fax document. More specifically, Internet Fax uses e-mail as the transport medium. Internet fax services typically include e-mail to fax (fax from an existing e-mail application), fax to e-mail (receive faxes in your e-mail), and PC to fax (fax documents from your desktop).
