Yes, the -d option should be the last option on the command line. Place the
"-i $job_id" before "-d $phone_no". Here is a quote from the sendfax man
page:

"The  order  of options on the command line is significant.
Each fax to be transmitted is assigned the  current  value
of  parameters specified on the command line; e.g. whether
or not to generate a cover page.  This means that  options
that  specify parameters for a particular destination must
precede the dialstring specified with the -d option."
