Heh, sorry... you could use the same idea with /bin/sh. /usr/bin/ksh has some advantages, but a simple script should be portable between the two.
If you get an error, the SQL statement / query will error out, but the script will keep going. So if there are functions later on in the script that depend on the results of your query, you may need to find some sort of error handling to add to the script.

POLLRCVD(8) System Manager's Manual POLLRCVD(8)
NAME
pollrcvd - HylaFAX script for delivering facsimile received by polling
SYNOPSIS
/var/spool/hylafax/bin/pollrcvd mailaddr faxfile devid commid error-msg
DESCRIPTION
bin/pollrcvd is the command script invoked by the HylaFAX server whenever a facsimile is received as a result of a polling operation. The
default script uses electronic mail to deliver the facsimile to the user that submitted the poll request, and can be controlled by editing
the etc/PollDispatch shell script in the spooling area that is sourced by pollrcvd when it runs. The arguments are:
mailaddr the electronic mail address of the user that submitted the poll request.
faxfile the pathname of the received TIFF file relative to the root of the spooling hierarchy.
commid The communication identifier associated with the call (used to include a transcript when an error occurs).
devid the modem device on which the document was received.
error-msg an error message that is non-null if an error was encountered during the receive operation.
NOTES
The default script delivers facsimile as PostScript wrapped in MIME.
FILES
/var/spool/hylafax spooling area
/usr/sbin/faxinfo for printing information about the facsimile
/usr/bin/fax2ps for converting TIFF to PostScript
/usr/lib/sendmail for delivering mail
