Could you suggest a *good* program to send/receive fax for Windows Vista
and/or Windows XP? (possibly freeware)

Sending/Receiving faxes can be done through windows fax services, which
comes with windows XP and VISTA. All you need to do is go to "Printers
and Faxes" and click on "Set up faxing". Now just follow the
instructions.

It seems a little bit poor.. what about a serious fax program like WinFax
Pro? (unfortunately it shouldn't be compatible with Vista)

Thanks,

XP, yes. Home versions of Vista, no.

XP has it's own fax software built-in as does Vista Ultimate and/or
Enterprise, but the other versions of Vista do not.
WinfaxPro isn't compatible with Vista. Try http://www.snappysoftware.com/

Yes...


and VISTA.

not with Home Basic nor Home Premium.

What version of Vista? Only Vista Business and Ultimate have the Fax and
Scan modules, no fax is included on Vista Home and Basic editions. If you
have Home or Basic, these fax applications are compatible with Vista:

Snappy Fax
http://www.snappysoftware.com/
RKSFax
http://www.rkssoftware.com/rksfax/overview.html
VentaFax
http://www.ventafax.com/
FaxTalk FaxCenter Pro 7.5
http://www.faxtalk.com/products/ftfcp/index.htm

I've seen reports that the free version of BVRP works with Vista also:

http://www.usr.com/bvrp/bvrp.asp
BVRP PhoneTools

Since the above comes bundled with new USR modems, I don't know if it will
work with non-USR modems. You can also send Faxes via your Internet
connection provided you are willing to pay for an Internet E-Faxing service:
