A cover page is automatically prepended to the document that includes your name, the destination FAX number, the date, the mail room FAX number, and a voice contact phone number (the student staff office).
Some of the cover page fields can be modified with options to sendfax. Some selected details from the sendfax man page are included below. Please see the man page for additional information.
-c comments Pass comments to the faxcover(1) program for
inclusion in the comments field of any generated
cover page.
-f <from> Use <from> as the identity of the facsimile sender.
Otherwise the sender is the user that invoked
sendfax. The sender is an account name to which the
HylaFAX software should direct notification messages.
The from identity may be a fullblown ``From:'' line,
e.g. e.g. ``Joe Blow <joe@foo.com>'' and
``joe@foo.com (Joe Blow)'' are acceptable. If no
host-part is specified in the from string the local
hostname is used. This option is useful when sendfax
is invoked on behalf of another user, such as in the
implementation of an electronic mail to fax gateway.
-r regarding
Pass regarding to the faxcover(1) program as the
value of the ``Re:'' field of any generated
cover page.
-x company Pass company to the faxcover(1) program as the
destination company name.
-y location Pass location to the faxcover(1) program as the
destination company's location.
It is possible to suppress the automatically-generated cover page and prepend your own to your FAX job. See the man pages for sendfax and faxcover for more information.
