STFax 4 is now FREEWARE
« on: October 25, 2003, 05:15:19 PM »
Taken from the STFax readme on aminet:

STFax 4
                            =======

STFax is now a Freeware application. Anyway, if you never bought it and want to contribute, you can order me something from my wishlist, see http://tellini.info/software/giftware.html


You can upgrade to the latest version applying the patches available on Aminet (biz/patch). Please do not email me with questions about the program expecting to receive an answer: currently my spare time is limited and I may not even remember the answer ;-)  (I *may* answer you, but don't hold your breath.)

See the enclosed ReadMe file for the serial code.

Have fun,

Simone Tellini

That's my fault.  I moved 2/3 of your post to the "Extended" section so the post on the main page would look shorter (viewers just have to click the "Read More" link to see the whole posting).  However, I missed the italics tags when I moved it.  I have fixed it now.  Sorry about that.

While I was happy to see a program of such quality being made free,it's not a good sign.

It's obviously the last version,otherwise it wouldn't be "offered". Looks like another good developer is leaving the Amiga.

Makes me remember of the free software spree that some magazines indulged in in the past. See where that took us...

If you send it to an ISP with Fax forwarding, it should work?

FaxFree.com is supposed to be free,  but never tried it.

The program looks at the serial port by default and needs to dialup on the phone line.

I've no idea how i can use it on an ADSL-Cable connection.

Suggestions?

PS- anyway, thanks a lot Simone :-)

Thanks for a great piece of software. I am a registered user and loved this software coupled with my old Pace Solo which unfortunately got blasted by a lightening storm :-(
Good luck with whatever you do in the future Simone. Have a :pint: with me !

@Framiga

From their site:

The network is entirely supported by advertising. That's why we're able to offer free fax services to anyone with a computer connected to the Internet.
I see your point about serial, so I sent the webmaster an email saying.. "Huh?? ANYONE??" :lol:

No way at all.

Probably under Win, some Fax Service Company with its own apps, can do it.

Not sure with STFax.
