Setting Up your Outlook Client - DON'T SKIP THIS STEP
Before sending faxes, you need to add the ability to 'send from' the fax service by opening up a new email and clicking the following buttons:
Select Options > Show Fields > select From - This will add the From field above your To field in the email and allow you to choose where the email is being sent from.
