More importantly the below contains a fairly fundamental
misunderstanding. That extensions.conf fragment is always running
against the channel that was created either by an incoming call or by
the "Channel" statement in the call file. Or, another way of saying it
is that the "Channel" statement in a call file creates the connection
given and then drops it into the dialplan as if it were an incoming call
to be answered etc.
So the TxFax here is always running against this "incoming" channel. It
is _never_ running against the channel dialled above it. The dial just
creates a _new_ channel, bridges it to the local channel and waits for
hang up. The only time a Dial returns to the dialplan (in the absence of
options) is if it fails to establish the new connection - in which case
it returns after setting ${DIALSTATUS}.
