Prevent Download of 5733OMF Cover Letters

When ordering PTFs via SNDPTFORD, we receive numerous cover letters for the 5733OMF product even though we do not have that product installed, and we did not request fixes for that product. We opened a case with IBM about the issue and were told that the cover letters are downloaded because the product is supported on our system. That doesn't make a lot of sense, since I'm sure other products are also supported, for which we do not receive PTF cover letters. My idea is simply: do not send cover letters for products that are not installed.

    IBM will use this request as input to planning but no commitment is made or implied. This request will be updated in the future if IBM implements it. IBM will use votes and comments from others in the community to help prioritize this request.
