These are the limits that apply to each test. The limits of count, size and pages are for tests by email: scan to email and Internet Fax.

Email tests from one sender address	60 each hour
Size of one email	7 MB for the full email, so the file can be about 5 MB
Pages in one file	20
Time a test is public	30 days
Time the removal link works	4 hours

Rules for a test by email

Rule	Value
File types	TIFF, PDF or JPEG. Faxbeep reads the type from the file, not its name.
Files in one email	One. If you send more, Faxbeep shows one of them.
PDF with a password	Not accepted
Colour	Accepted, and shown in colour

A test by phone must be black and white. Colour faxes by phone are not supported.

When a test is over a limit

Limit	What happens
Email tests in one hour	Faxbeep refuses each email after the first 60 from your address. Most emails that Faxbeep refuses also count. Wait one hour.
Size of one email	Faxbeep refuses the email. Use a lower resolution, fewer pages, or black and white.
Pages in one file	Faxbeep refuses the email. Send fewer pages.
File type	Faxbeep refuses the email. Set the scan file format to PDF, TIFF or JPEG.
More than one file	Faxbeep shows one file: a PDF or TIFF before a JPEG. If your machine makes one JPEG for each page, set the format to PDF or TIFF.
Time a test is public	Faxbeep removes the test. Its page then says that the fax was removed. See Public for 30 days.
Time the removal link works	The link no longer works. Send a new removal request. See Remove a fax.

When Faxbeep refuses an email, your mail server gets a short message with the reason, and many machines show or print it. For each message and what to do, see Email refusal messages.
