With some trepidation, I can say my home system doesn't seem to work 
that way. Using an analog phone, I can deal 3, 7, 10 or 11 numbers and 
all goes as I expect.

After seeing this post, I wondered why :). It seems * waits about 4 secs 
to see if all the numbers are dialed. Or is it some fortuitous order of 
the includes ( vaguely remembering posts about how extensions were 
searched)?

extensions.conf:
[internal]
include => outbound-local
include => outbound-long-distance
include => office-extensions

[outbound-local]
exten => _NXXXXXX,1,Answer()
exten => _NXXXXXX,n,Dial(${faxline}/${EXTEN})

[outbound-long-distance]
exten =>_1NXXNXXXXXX,1,Answer()
exten =>_1NXXNXXXXXX,n,Dial(iax2/office/${EXTEN})

exten =>_NXXNXXXXXX,1,Answer()
exten =>_NXXNXXXXXX,n,Dial(iax2/office/${EXTEN})

[office-extensions]
exten =>_1XX,1,Answer()
exten =>_1XX,n,Dial(iax2/office/${EXTEN})
