Faxing with outlook2000, OS is XP

I am using outlook2000 running under XP. I have been
trying to get the fax capability to work within
outlook2000. I am connected to a LAN all the time but
want to get outlook2000 to send/receive faxes via my
internal modem card if possible.

When I try to send a fax, as MS suggests using format of
send to: [fax:xxxxxxx], I get an error of "No transport
provider was available for delivery to this recipient."

Does anyone know if this is possible without buying
additional software? To see if I could get any more
capabilities I switched to "Corporate or Workgroup" from
Internet Mail Only (IMO). I can easily switch back if
needed.

Regards,

Patrick

Corporate/Workgroup mode is how you want Outlook 2000 set, then follow this

Yes, you would need an analog phone cord hooked to the internal 56k modem to
fax.
