HylaFAX is as flexible as your programming skills are ...

You can pass every configuration parameter to faxsend with the 
"-c"-option, e.g. faxsend -c FaxNumber:xxxxxxx. (man faxsend)

Write a wrapper-skript that you configure as "SendFaxCmd", make sure you 
get all options, HylaFAX/faxq passes to the "SendFaxCmd" (e.g. device 
with -m) and modify as much parameters you want.
Pass them to faxsend at the end.

Search the mailing list archives for the subject "virtual modems dont 
work" for an example.
