I haven't used it myself, but one solution to this problem is to use 
"FaxGate" from Solutions, Inc.  I allows anyone on the network to 
send faxes.  You must be using either Microsoft Mail 2.0 or 
QuickMail 2.2 to send the messages on the network.  FaxGate runs in 
the background on the mail server.  You have to have a 
BackFax-compatible fax modem (several different modems from various 
manufacturers will work).  It costs $395 per server for the 
software.  For information, call Solutions, Inc., P.O. Box 783, 
Williston VT 05495, voice 802-865-9220, fax 802-865-9220.
