not sure what your requirements are, but i can +1 the reliability of 
hylafax, have been using it for years problem free although only +- 10 
faxes a day, and its running on an old leftover pc with a cheap modem on 
a analog line.

i use it in combination with avantfax as a web front end and email2fax, 
its a cheap and Free solution, easy to use, low maintenance etc....

never used iaxmodem though
