Sending a fax

After installing the necessary components, there are a number of ways to send
a fax from your computer. If you have a file ready to send, you can send this
straight from its application. On the other hand, if you just want to send a
short note, you can use the MS Windows Fax Service itself. Alternatively you
can use any fax program.
