Receiving Faxes

[Swany]

Help, I just recently switched from MS Outlook 2000 to MS Outlook XP only to find out that it doesn't support receiving faxes!! Could anybody give me an idea of what to do? What alternative are available or solutions people have come up with. It was just so incredibly convenient to have email and faxes come to one location in my INBox
Thanks
Swany

You must have changed more than your Outlook version. Outlook 2002 can still
receive faxes in the Inbox, depending on your fax software. Did you change
that too?

No change in software, just an installed the Outlook XP. I can't find the ability to fax anywhere. I got into some Outlook support sites that says it doesn't work with Symantex Fax Starter Edition. I'm really puzzled. I've been researching if there's software programs that will allow for it. To me it seems like it should just have it as part of the Outlook program. What do you think?

Oh good heavens. I didn't think anyone was still trying to use Win Fax SE.
It was abandoned years ago. Outlook does not provide fax software, it only
integrates with the fax software provided by Windows. What operating system
are you using?
