First, for some clarifications the Google Corporation provides an online email service that is free and known as Gmail, while the ability to send a document over internet or phone lines to a fax machine is commonly referred to as faxing.

Opposed to email addresses, telephone numbers are used to send faxes.  Online faxing is the designation that sending a fax falls under when using Gmail for this.  

From your Gmail account, in order to send a fax you will need the following two items.

The ability to work with email companies that are web-based such as Hotmail, Yahoo and Gmail, have be enabled by all of the fax companies online in recent years.  Additionally to being compatible with those companies, these email accounts also work with privately owned domains and their email addresses such as yourdomain.com.
