the variable setting i'm not helpful with, but how about:

[context]
exten => 2200,n,Dial(${DEVICE},20,kKotTwW)
exten => 2200,n,Goto(vm,${EXTEN},1)

[vm]
exten => _X.,1,Exec(${IF($["${DIALSTATUS}" 
= "BUSY"]?VoiceMail(${EXTEN},b):VoiceMail(${EXTEN},u))})
exten => _X.,n,Playback(vm-goodbye)
exten => _X.,n,Hangup()

the only part that gets repeated for each exten are the two lines in [context]
