Ancient technology and still so valuable in most offices. I am wondering why no phoneOS provides proper FAX services.

Hmm, could be funny take a Photo by documentscanner and fax it away... Yes, some companys prefer facsimilies (timestamp and sendernumber seems more documentary proof than email)

Crazy and neat idea ;)

Last time I had that in my mobile was Comunicator 9500 probably...C

there is an Android app called fax pro I'm using quite often - works brilliant on the jolla - it's a paid app though and requires an external service provider like sipgate ...

You don't need an app. There are a lot of email-to-fax services. Some of them even (claim to be) free. I cannot vouch for any of them personally - the service I used the last time I had a need for a fax does not exist any more. That was about 15 years ago.
