IMMEDIATE RELEASE

                      EFAX.COM RECEIVES NASDAQ NOTIFICATION
                           REGARDING CONTINUED LISTING

      MENLO PARK, Calif. - (BUSINESS WIRE) - July 14, 2000 - eFax.com (Nasdaq:
EFAX) today announced that the Company has been notified by The Nasdaq Stock
Market that it no longer complies with the requirements for continued listing.
At a Nasdaq qualifications hearing held on July 13, 2000, the Company appealed
this determination. In its appeal, the Company requested that Nasdaq permit the
continued listing of the Company's Common Stock pending the completion of the
Company's proposed merger with JFAX.COM, Inc. (the "Merger"). Nasdaq is expected
to render its decision over the next several weeks and the Company is
cooperating with Nasdaq in its decision-making process. The Company cannot
provide any assurance that its appeal to remain listed on The Nasdaq National
Market will be successful and, if successful, that the Company will not be
delisted at some later time. In the event of a delisting, the Company will
attempt to have its Common Stock listed on either the Nasdaq SmallCap Market or
the over-the-counter electronic bulletin board sponsored by Nasdaq. In such
event, investors may find it more difficult to trade in the Company's Common
Stock or to obtain accurate, current information concerning market prices.

      If the Company's Common Stock is delisted and is not relisted within 20
business days on The Nasdaq National Market, The Nasdaq SmallCap Market, The New
York Stock Exchange, The American Stock Exchange or the over-the-counter
electronic bulletin board sponsored by Nasdaq, the holders of the Company's
preferred stock (the "Investors") will have a right to redeem all or part of
their preferred stock for cash. The current redemption value of all of the
outstanding preferred shares is approximately $19.5 million. If the Merger does
not occur and the Company's Common Stock is delisted, it is expected that the
Investors will have the ability to trigger the Company's obligation to pay the
redemption value of the Preferred Stock.

      On July 13, 2000, the Company entered into an exchange agreement (the
"Exchange Agreement") with the Investors, pursuant to which the Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company held by the Investors will be
converted into an equal number of shares of the Series D Convertible Preferred
Stock of the Company (the "Series D Stock"). On the date of issuance, which is
expected to occur on July 17, 2000,


   2
each share of Series D Stock will be convertible into approximately 17,188
shares of the Company's Common Stock, subject to certain conversion limitations.
Following the exchange, there will be 1,447 shares of Series D Stock
outstanding.
