Secure outgoing email with SSL
I currently work for a bank, so security is paramount.
I'm trying to secure outgoing email from our fax machines to our email host, rackspace. On a normal client, I would simply turn on ssl, and everything is fine. However, our fax machines do not support ssl. How would I go about encrypting the normal smtp traffic so that it is using ssl before it leaves my network? Could I use postfix on a server somehow? maybe stunnel?
I attached a simple network diagram of what I'm trying to do.

technically I guess it could work, but i already have the hardware, and would rather not invest any more into this project. Besides, I would still have to research the company's financials for regulatory requirements.
Is there any way I can do this myself? I can figure it out if someone could point me in the right direction.

Email Clients
An email client, email reader or more formally mail user agent (MUA) is a computer program in the category of groupware environments used to access and manage a user's email. A web application that provides message management, composition, and reception functions may internally act as an email client; as a whole, it is commonly referred to as webmail. Likewise, email client may be referred to a piece of computer hardware or software whose primary or most visible role is to work as an email client. Email clients can also have other systems, like calendars, notes and contact managers.
