You can easily add it as an "X-FAX header" to the e-mail your sending.
Use formail, or a simple echo:

formail:
	formail -b -I 'X-FAX-Modem: ttyS0' < testo | faxmail...

echo:
	(echo 'X-FAX-Modem: ttyS0'; cat testo) | faxmail ...

You can control *any* of the config optoins that faxmail knows about
with X-FAX-* headers.  See the man page for more details.
