There is one option...there are a couple e-mail to fax gateways that I
know
of, which would allow you to send e-mail using your //e to a fax
machine.  

One that I use even lets you send a free trial message.  To try it out,
send
a message to [fax number]@faxaway.com.  For
example...18765551212@faxaway.com
would send the message body to a fax at 1-(876) 555-1212.  It even lets
you
include graphics and certain WP formats (in Binhex or UUencoded).  Point
your
lynx browser to www.faxaway.com for more info.
