Or mgetty+sendfax. Efax will occupy the modem so that you can't have any
other dial-in except fax. Mgetty+sendfax allows you to receive data (login
or ppp auto detected) as well on the same modem. With a ZyXEL modem you can
even receive voice, data and fax!

I use mgetty+sendfax to answer the modem and efax to send. All this
software is on the RedHat 4.2 CD. (I know this is the debian list, but I am
actually running RedHat on most of my machines, sorry..)
