Merci pour ces instructions car c’est vraiment utile. Cependant, on pense qu’il est préférable d’envoyer un tel document aux clients par fax par internet car c’est plus sûr et plus rapide. L’email n’est pas aussi mauvais que ça mais avec le fax on a plus de choix d’envoi aussi bien sur le type que sur la méthode d’envoi et selon vos instruments .
Je partage l’avis du précédent commentaire. Le fax en ligne est plus pratique pour ce genre de services. Dans notre cas, on utilise le service fax en ligne sur le site fax-mailing.pro. Vous aussi faites comme nous, abonnez-vous sur ce site.
