Good for you! On to the question.

Mgetty-sendfax basically does what HylaFAX does, though perhaps no
longer as well supported as HylaFAX. The mgetty package has similarly
named commands that do similar things, such as "faxrm" to remove fax
files from the outgoing fax queue.

If you want HylaFAX, remove mgetty first. If you want mgetty to have
things vgetty for the voice tools, you'll need to look a bit deeper
and see how to get those mgetty tools without the mgetty fax handling.
