   1. 1. If the body of your email is empty, the subject line will be treated as your cover page 
      2. Alternatively, you can attach a file named coverpage, and it will be treated as your cover page regardless of what is in your email's body or subject line.

            2. If your fax fails, confirm the fax number is correct in the status email. Please Note: it is supposed to have a 1 in front of the number if the fax is within the continental United States
            3. If the number is correct, please try the fax again as the fax machine on the receiving end is likely busy
