We have a few Hylafax servers in our network.  Both it and IAXmodem are a
real bear to learn at first (well, so is Asterisk) but when you get them
working, they are rock solid.  I hadn't even thought about it, but it's
been at least a year since I logged into any of our Hylafax servers and did
anything to them.  They just work.

I would estimate I put in a solid 30 hours into learning and configuring
the first server, and then some more time learning additional capabilities
and best practices.  But again, since doing that, it's been totally
hands-off.

I will add though that we also use Fax for Asterisk simply to receive and
turn faxes into PDF for some customers, and that is perfectly stable also.
