I will second the recommendation for Page Sender, it is an excellent 
program. I had used cocoa eFax, but PageSender is definitely better. 
(Though not free...). However, consider HylaFAX if you are willing to 
get into a more complicated setup. I don't recommend trying to compile 
it on OS X, as it is a bit of a pain, especially considering how easy 
it is on Linux. (This assumes that you have a linux box already....)

Another option (classic and OS 9 only) is finding an old Global Village 
OneWorld on eBay or elsewhere. It's a little box that plugs into your 
ethernet network (or LocalTalk for that matter) and has one or two 
modems in it. Can be used for faxing, Remote access, or network modem 
(Though limited to 19.2kbs) The driver software (a special version of 
GloabalFax) is hard to find, but let me know and I can locate it.
