Or if you're looking for a commercial solution, try Vsifax. We use it here 
for our fax server. Actually, Vsifax is the reason we got our first Linux 
server on the network.  (I've added a couple more since then ) :)

Their website hasn't been overly helpful when I've needed help, but their 
tech support is simply wonderful. Their webpage is http://www.esker.com

And no, I have no ties to the company other than using the product.
