Install a mail-to-fax gateway (there are many free for
UNIX), and a fax server (e.g. mgetty+sendfax, efax, HylaFax,
all free for UNIX) on the service provider's UNIX machine.
Some of those might already have such a mail-to-fax service.

Then ~/.forward to this mail-to-fax gateway

We run such a system for our members; however we do not
accept any commercial use as we are a non-profit organization.
And we are not located in Zuerich.

There also exist mail-to-voicemail systems, notably there is one
(english voice synthesis only currently) under mgetty/vgetty
(free, under UNIX), with the possibility to dial out to
the recipient. I did not use any of those systems for the
moment, so I cannot comment more on this.

PS: free == the software comes with full source, usually under the
    GNU licence or as public domain, with the permission to modify
    and distribute modified source. We do not speak of shareware
    or any other commercial software disguised as ``free'' because
    it does not seem to cost anything in the short term.
