Can anyone recommend software that sends faxes over SIP?  I have plenty of inbound fax to email services, but now and 
then I need to send a reply and it looks tacky to use one of the free web ones that put an ad on it.

I know that if I wanted to pay $15/mo there are lots of lovely services but we're taking about one fax a month, 
maybe, here.

Ideally it'd take a postscript or PDF or Word document and a phone number and fax it to that number.  I have Ubuntu, 
FreeBSD, and MacOS boxes.  Any suggestions?

Not SIP, but over TCP/IP, I have been happy with iFax from www.ifaxapp.com <http://www.ifaxapp.com/> which takes a  
document and a phone number and sends the document to that number. Charging is against credits which are available at 
varying prices. 

The iFax application is available for macOS, Windows, iOS, and Android. I use it on iOS and macOS. See the website for 
more details on inbound fax, document scanning, HIPAA, and other features.
