Update your sendfax command parameters to include:

-k $KILLTIME

Example:

sendfax -D -n -u 1234567890 -S TESTINGTSI -k 'now + 12 hours' -d 987654321 /home/testuser/document_to_fax.pdf

This works properly on the various systems I use running Hylafax+ 5.2.x or better. The syntax or usage may be different if you're using an older version of Hylafax+ or a release from Hylafax.org.
