The email message is marked as being from the FaxFinder Administrator.
The sender’s “Remote ID” and the client’s name appear in the “Subject” line of the email message.
(The Remote ID comes from the sending fax machine and is typically the sender’s fax number or
name.)

graphic file attachment. The FaxFinder Server has assigned the file an automatic file name.

renaming the graphic file attachment with a meaningful name for subsequent viewing or for
forwarding (applicable to TIFF files only).
