It wouldn't be too hard to put a shell/perl/... script wrapper around 
sendfax.

This script would examine the destination phone number, look up in a 
table which "Server" would be servicing that number, set the FAXSERVER=
environment variable, then call sendfax.  I could whip it off in about
4 lines of shell script for an easy implementation.

Let me know if you want more info.

Good Luck,
