I don't know of a comprehensive guide, but you can set it up using
NVFaxDetect, NVFaxEmail, and SpanDSP or Hylafax. NVFaxEmail can pull the
e-mail addresses from it's own config, voicemail.conf, a database, or thru
realtime.

Simple extensions.conf:

[incoming-dids]
exten => _541359XXXX,1,NVFaxDetect(...)  ; Make sure this is a fax
exten => fax,1,NVFaxEmail(...,${CALLERID},pu,...)  ; Receive and e-mail PDF
with user lookup
