	I haven't actually done much work with them, since I don't send many 
faxes, and noone really send me any either (funny...).  Since noone else 
has mentioned it though, I thought I'd point out the mgetty+sendfax 
possiblity.  mgetty is a general purpose getty which also understands 
fax, and will spool them for you on the incoming end, and sendfax works 
along the same lines as sendmail (you put faxes in a spool, and every 
couple of minutes it'll try and send them).

	I haven't really seen any of the other systems, but the simplicity 
of this system gets me here <pounds chest>.  It comes with some tools for 
conversion between various formats, of which g3 is the primary one it 
uses.
