If you are in a corporate environment - contact your helpdesk/IT department.
They can help you configure this based on your org settings.

If you are in a home environment - You need to buy add. software to receive
faxes in outlook. Your PC probably already has some sort of faxing software
since it has a modem - Faxes would be received/read using that software
(potentially a Windows OS freebee depending on which version of Windows you
are using). To send faxes, you would use word or any other program that has
a print function, and then when you are ready to fax, you select the fax
program as the printer, instead of a normal printer.

To set up e-mail in a home environment, you most likely do not have an
exchange server or similar corporate server software. Use "internet email".
The profile name is up to you. More than likely you will only set up one.
It only becomes significant if you need to run multiple profiles and need to
remember which is which when you switch between them. Complete the profile
with the seetings provided by your e-mail provider (most likely your ISP).
