If you run a faxing loop script that does this:

sendfax -d 1111111 my_file.ps
sendfax -d 2222222 my_file.ps
sendfax -d 3333333 my_file.ps

you will get multiple copies of the docq files.

If you run you fax like this:

sendfax -d 1111111 -d 2222222 -d 3333333 my_file.ps

Then you will only end up with one copy of the files in the docq.  Writing
scripts like the first one is much easier, and for most people, the disk space
isn't a concern.
