Xsane
http://www.xsane.org/index.html
XSane is a GTK-based X11 frontend for SANE. It works either standalone or as a gimp plugin. It is an alternative to xscanimage. Xsane does not support any scanners itself, but instead uses SANE to do so. You can scan to file, do a photocopy, create a fax and start XSane from the GIMP as gimp plug in. Xsane is specifically designed to work with scanners; other devices (like cameras and video devices) that SANE may support are not supported by xsane. Additionally, it has both email and scan to file functions.
