Hi Bill, you might want to double-check with the phone company to
verify what they mean by E&M. I've found that in many cases when
the phone guys say E&M they mean something different. It sounds like
in your case what they mean is analog DID in which case Lee's advice
is correct.

I've personally never seen an E&M trunk used to provide public service,
only as interconnections between a company's main office and remote
offices or as a link between a router and a PBX in order to replace the
prior.

Regarding the Brooktrout boards, I believe there's a commercial version
of Hylafax available from iFax that supports the boards but I'm not
aware of any drivers available for the open source version.
