Get-Account-From-Sender-Email-Address command in the For-External-Module context.

The port server e-mail gateway will send a fax from an e-mail message that is has received after
it has authorized the sender of the e-mail message. Authorization is performed by verifying that
the “From” e-mail address is known to the port server. If an account is found that matches the e-
mail address, additional authorization steps may be performed using other account attributes.

Optionally, the FB-Snd-Email attribute may be included in a response to the Get-Account
