MS FAX
To use FAX in Windows 98, you can use the Windows 95 MS FAX located on the Windows 98 CD under \tools\Oldwin95\message\us.
1. Copy \windows\system\MAPISTUB.DLL somewhere - you will need this after installing MS FAX. This file somehow becomes missing after installing MS FAX and causes Outlook Express (OE) to display a prompt informing you that OE is not the default mail client. Another message box appears instructing you to reinstall the app that uses MAPISTUB.DLL so it can be put into \windows\system.
2. If you are running Outlook 97 (or later) or Microsoft Exchange Mail, you can skip to step 4. If not, run the wms.exe file first which will install Windows Messaging (contains the MAPI requirements for FAX).
3. Reboot
4. Run awfax.exe to install MS FAX.
5. Reboot
6. Copy MAPISTUB.DLL into \windows\system
