[Maurizio Gobbo <maurizio.gobbo@fracarro.com>]

i try 
faxcover -C mycustomcover.ps -r "Object" -x "Company" -c "CoverComment" 
 -f "JJJ mgobbo@fracarro.com" | sendfax -n -d "TEST"@5551234

return 
sendfax: No input data; tranmission aborted.

with 
faxcover -C mycustomcover.ps -r "Object" -x "Company" -c "CoverComment" 
-f "JJJ mgobbo@fracarro.com" | sendfax -n -d "TEST"@5551234 /etc/crontab

correctly return only crontab whitout a coverpage.
