Good GUI-based fax client?

Hello

I'd like to replace a Windows server that hosts a fax application with
an external fax-modem. Do you know of a good, basic alternative on
Linux that still looks polished like eg. MightyFax?

Thank you.

Hopefully, I can get this up and running without spending a week ;-)

If I can view and print faxes from a remote Windows client, all the
better, but even a simple application to receive faxes on the host
where the modem is connected would be good enough, as this is what
we're using. Nothing fancy.

Thanks.

Hylafax can be a bitch to set up and get running. But.... Once it is
running, it stays running for *years* no matter what you throw at it. I
have an installation that is still running 7 years after the original
installation, no changes, no updates, no tweaks. Just solid performance.
