    Your English is fine. Perhaps mine wasn't. Remember that I asked you for
    the format of your message. If it is HTML, change it to plain text. You
    appear to be asking the Fax Service to render your fax. The Fax Service
    has no rendering capability. Neither does Outlook. So your message must
    not contain anything that requires rendering (like formatting or
    signatures, etc.)
