Hi Paul,
As others have mentioned, SIP for Fax is unreliable, at best -
especially over the Internet where you can have no QoS. T.38 is the Fax
over IP protocol, but if you can find a VOIP supplier that supports it -
let alone well, then you are luckier than me.
HylaFax (and the others) are great for when you use a physical phone
line. Either POTS or ISDN*, but not for external IP transmission.
I also heavily use Asterisk, and found that Email->Fax to be the best
way. There are many suppliers that provide a Fax API that allows
submission of a PDF directly via scripts, this is all handled on my
server. For inbound faxes I use a a Fax->Email service that appears
directly in my inbox, and is all processed externally.
One thing I should mention.. If you really want access to a physical fax
machine, where a scanner will not suffice - I know of people that have
had good success using SIP (uLaw) to their * server, then performing a
similar process to what I have outlined above. Personally i prefer a
scanner.
If you want a hand with the Asterisk side of it, give me a mail or grab
me on IRC.
Kind Regards,
Dave Walker
