I might know a smidgen more about that than you do :)  If you want
send-only, read the section below:

http://www.hylafax.org/howto/tweaking.html#ss6.6

Basically, you don't want a getty at all, but this means each time the
machine is rebooted, or the daemons restarted, you'll have to re-run
some of the configuration stuff.  It the very least, that means running
the following after starting the normal Hylafax software:

faxstate -n ttyS0

for each serial port/modem.  You may also have to run faxmodem first
(with the appropriate Class 1 or 2 modem string for your hardware).  It
seems to work okay, at least if you don't turn your machine and/or modem
on and off all the time.
