Bug in sendfax (Option -n not processed correctly)

[Matthias Pfützner <Matthias.Pfuetzner@igd.fhg.de>]

Hello Everybody,

I think, I found a bug in sendfax.

I'm using HylaFAX 4.0 PL1 on Solaris 2.5.1, compiled with Sun's CC 4.1.

If "-n" is NOT at the beginning of the command line, a FAXCOVER page IS
generated!

This, I'd call a bug!

I don't know, where this comes from, but I guess, someone has to look at it...

Sincerly,
        Matthias
