How can feedback from a HTML form be sent to a fax machine? Does someone
offer the converting process from e-mail to fax? (The HTML page is on a
webhotel, so I can't just install a fax program there.)

You might be best to outsource that functionality. Have you explored
eFax.com (http://www.efax.com/) I believe they provide that sort of
service.

This works well for us:

<http://www.protofax.com/>

It runs on Windows NT as a service, and serves as a fax driver
(which can optionally be run from a desktop as well). It will fax
an HTML file written to disk -- but if that's not convenient, as
your case sounds, you can email an HTML-formatted email to
ProtoFax and it will then fax the result *as an HTML page.*
Quite cool, actually. Try it on their site.

It works well, though it's primitive in some regards (it can't do
a distribution list, for example). But it sounds as though it
will do what you need.
