I've come late to this discussion so you may have mentioned this
already but I wondered if you had considered FaxCenter which also came
out as one of the early fax options for OSX?

I think Ben started it as a college project and it has been a work in
progress with regular bug fixes and feature updates. It is certainly
better than Apple's poor excuse for a faxing functionality, costs $10
and in the interests of maintaining low blood pressure I will not even
start on Faxstf...
I used to use FaxExpress (in UK) but now I use FaxCenter (with Panther
and Jaguar) and find it pretty good and getting better.
