This is a newly-developed, point-to-multipoint method for fax telecommunication, which enables the user to send files to many different fax machines in the world through one operation. The whole sending process only takes several seconds.The email-based internet fax system is designed and implemented, and the main work focuses on the following aspects:1. Generally introduce the network structure and software architecture of the email-based internet fax system.2. Design and implement a simple and configurable gateway for emails which carry faxes.3. Realize the multi-task file transfer engine, one of the main problems of this project.4. Elaborate the T.30 regulation of fax telecommunication. And also design and implement the DSP gateway for fax.5. This paper analyzes the adopted mechanisms of security, disaster recovery and distributed task assignment in details.
