Here is a link on configuring the service:

But I think your issue may revolve around the summary sentence:
"To gain access to the Messaging Application Programming Interface (MAPI) e-mail client profile, you must configure the Microsoft Windows 2000 Fax Service to run under an Administrator account. "
I ran into this same problem trying to connect to my servers with perfmon. If you don't know how to do this, reply here.
