I am using Hylafax in UNDP office.  It is very robust, reliable, and
easy to use.  But the configuration is a bit tricky if want to configure
the incoming fax to send to email box automatically (converting to pdf
as attachment).  After all I believe it is the best open source fax
server product.

Let me know what I can help.

Hello,

I am looking for an OSS fax solution.  Hylafax seems to be it.

Anybody have any practical experience with Hylafax?
