The proper thing to do is to find a Linux Fax Printer driver for your
fax device and use that. I know the capabilities of Right Fax and would
be very grateful if its developers created a Linux version, but suspect
that will be a long, long time in coming. Maybe you could contact
OpenText and see what they can do.
