I've got a setup using HylaFAX.  It's not exactly what you mention 
though.  What we have setup is that you can send and email to the fax 
box with a postscript attachment and the email will act as the fax 
coversheet and the attached document will the the rest of the fax.  
You can setup filters with HylaFAX to do things like PDF->PS 
conversion automatically.
