which fax program do I use?

[peter]

I'm running windows 2000 and outlook 2000. windows comes with a fax (NT
fax from memory), but it doesn't work with my version of outlook 2000
as it's "email only".

a) Is there a way of changing outlook to permit the fax? or
b) Is there another fax program that I could/should use?

Maybe the fax software that usually comes with the modem - asuming you have
a dial up modem not cable.

If you are really adventurous and want to install the Symantec WinFax Starter Edition that comes with Outlook 2000 IMO mode, you can try that. Then read these pages to configure and wrestle with the wee beastie:

Or you can change to the full version of Outlook which will work with
Windows 2000 Fax.
