I've see this as well.  If you can remove all the lines above:

%!PS-Adobe-3.0

and resubmit with sendfax I think things will work as expected.  The extra
lines at the top of your postscript file are being added by the windows printer
driver.  These lines seem to convince HylaFAX that this file is text and not
postscript.  I use the "HP LaserJet III PostScript Cartridge" driver in XP and
it produces postscript files without the additional lines which are converted
correctly by HylaFAX without modification.
