I also prefer PDFs to paper. I subscribe to ExtremeFax and all my faxes are delivered to me via email as PDFs. I can also send faxes directly from my computer, or using my fax machine. For $4.79/month I get 500 pages, but bigger plans are available. You can get a local number or a free 800 number.

I ported my old fax number to them and found that I could eliminate paying for a separate fax line. I don't send all that many faxes so I just share a regular voice line for those outgoing faxes I don't send from my PC directly.

Some Brother MFCs support Scan to FTP which should allow you to scan to a Linux share.
