2) app_txfax I need to know if a fax has gone through or not. My reading of txfax seems to indicate that it basically just fails, rather than giving me anything I can work with to try and fail gracefully (letting the user know that things didn't go well). Is that indeed correct? I don't know Asterisk that well, so I may be completely off base:-) What would be the best way to make it interact better with the dial plan so that one could detect if it fails and act accordingly? Set a variable? 3) I'm working on a small, simple email->fax system. Just out of curiosity, what else is out there for Asterisk? I found AsterFax, but it looks a little bit hairy to set up...
You really should consider HylaFAX - www.hylafax.org. It has what you're missing - a fully featured queue manager / scheduler that takes care of retries for you, and notifies the sender of any failures encountered. It can be integrated with Asterisk via analog or digital lines, or by using a software-based modem such as IAXmodem.
