I use sendfax ( from mgetty+sendfax) and the best it can do is
to use a filter in the lpr/lpd system that stores the fax, but you
need to run it's perl daemon in the background if you want the
faxes to go out.
 
If you want the filter : http://isis.et.uni-magdeburg.de/~horstf
It's meant to be used with SAMBA but I guess the filter can be used 
as stand-alone.
