Yes, I use ZYXEL U1496+.

Configuration is
-----------
AnswerRotary:           extern
EGettyArgs:             "...<args>..."
-----------

My egetty program plays voice promt and exits with code 2 if detected fax tone.
If fax tone was not detected it records voice message.

The typical sessiÏns for egetty program are:

----------- voice call sessiÏn
>>> 'AT\r'
<<< '\r\nOK\r\n'
>>> 'AT+FCLASS=?\r'
<<< '\r\n0,2,2.0,6,8\r\nOK\r\n'
>>> 'AT+FCLASS?\r'
<<< '\r\n2.0\r\nOK\r\n'
>>> 'AT+FCLASS=8\r'        # voice class
<<< '\r\nOK\r\n'
>>> 'ATS39.6=1\r'               # enable receiving DLE codes
<<< '\r\nOK\r\n'
>>> 'AT+VLS=2\r'                # voice connection
<<< '\r\nVCON\r\n'
>>> 'AT+VTX\r'                    # start sending voice
<<< '\r\nCONNECT\r\n'
>>> [RMD file]                      # sending voice prompt
>>> <NUL><DLE><ETX>   # stop sending voice
<<< '\r\nVCON\r\n'
>>> 'AT+VTS=[1200,0,15]\r' # beep
<<< '\r\nOK\r\n'
>>> 'AT+VRX\r'                   # start receiving voice
<<< '\r\nCONNECT\r\n'
<<< [RMD file]                     # receiving/recording voice message
<<< '<DLE>b'                     # busy signal detected
>>> 'AT\r'                            # stop receiving voice
<<< '\r\nVCON\r\n'
>>> 'ATS39.6=0\r'              # restore

<<< '\r\nOK\r\n'
>>> 'AT+VLS=0\r'              # on hook
<<< '\r\nOK\r\n'
exit 5                                   #  return to faxgetty with CALLTYPE_DONE

I'm not using the mgetty+sendfax's vgetty but it seems that it can be used instead egetty.

NOTE: It seems there is a bug in HylaFax on Linux (see below).
If so you can try to patch HylaFax or use egetty script that runs vgetty
(replace "print "ATA\r"; exit 2;" to "exec '/sbin/vgetty...';").
