About Sending a Fax as E-mail
You can send fax files and attachments to a recipient’s e-mail address
rather than to a fax number. When fax files are sent by
e-mail, they arrive as TIFF file attachments to the e-mail message. The
recipient can then view the TIFF files with an e-mail utility or an external
image viewing application. The e-mail message to which the TIFF files
are attached includes a URL to a web page that instructs the recipient how
to configure the e-mail application to view the TIFF file attachments.
Most of the steps for sending fax files to an e-mail address are the same as
for sending fax files to a fax number. The main difference is that you
choose E-mail from the Send As options. You must specify a valid e-mail
address for the recipient. Fax files that you have sent to an e-mail address
appear in Status Manager as job type E-mail.
If you are sending a fax to more than one recipient, choose E-mail from
the Send As options. The application sends the selected files to the e-mail
address of each person in the recipient list. If you have not provided an e-
mail address for a recipient, the fax job to that recipient is not sent.

which you create from any Windows
