[python] Is there a python written fax program out there?

[David Stockwell]

Hi,

Today I was in a meeting and someone mentioned they were looking for some
software whereby they could run their own fax server (ie a computer with a
modem, someone sends a fax, and the software convertes it to an image and
drops it in an email box).

I'm posting this here incase someone happens to know of a python
implementation or other language implementation that is either free or for
sale? If so, I'd like to know where to get them.

Thanks

David

Efax. You can use Python to call it. Search Freshmeat.net for exact
URL.

For a single-user, efax is pretty decent. For a group fax
servers, Hylafax is the usual answer.
