I used to use efax. It has one shell script that does everything. If you
understand shell scripting, it is pretty easy. I switched to mgetty because
it does a lot more. With vgetty, you have voice, fax, & data all in one
package. Drawback: It only works with class 2 or 2.0. No class 1. Hylafax 
I was never able to get running, but I haven't tried it in a couple of years.
