Anyone know a way of faxing your linux system from a normal fax machine without giving Telstra 22c per shot.
Got a client who wants to scan multiple page documents into emails for a digital backup of the hard copy.. Currently they fax them to their jfax account which emails them the scanned tif files to their server. They'd rather link their fax machine directly to their fax modem (or something else?) but I don't see how this is possible without going out and back to the telephone exchange. Fax machines expect the 'off-hook' dial tone before commencing dialing. If it can be done, it's a nice way to get a cheap sheet-feeding scanner (admittedly low res).
