In your incoming call context where fax calls come in you need to Set 
some user variable to ${EXTEN} before the dialplan continues, because 
once the fax is detected it will get changed.

Then, in your Dial (to IAXmodem or whatever) use the user variable that 
was used with Set instead of ${EXTEN}.
