Two different fax services are available with Microsoft Outlook 2000, which depends on whether you chose a Corporate/Workgroup (CW) installation or an Internet Mail Only (IMO) installation.

•	If you chose the CW installation of Outlook, install Microsoft Fax from your Windows media, add it to your mail profile and then reinstall Office 2000.
•	If you chose the IMO installation of Outlook, the Symantec Fax Starter Edition is available as an add-in component.
