Therefore I hardly use the fax, it would be nice to use the fax machine to receive faxes..

I don't know, but can SIP devices handle fax transmissions? Why are you trying to send a fax to a SIP phone?

There is a special extension, called "fax," that you use to specify where you want incoming fax calls to go. It detects faxes by the CNG tone and sends them where you specify. Here is an example:
exten => fax,1,Dial(${Fax}) ; Use Zap channel for 2004 instead of ${Fax}
There are some faxes that do not send CNG tones, so this will occasionally fail for that reason. You might also send calls that time out to the fax extension, or you can use distinctive ringing, as someone else suggested.
Let me know how this works for you. I am still having trouble with garbled fax transmissions once I get a connection to the fax, and I would be interested in your experience sending and receiving faxes.

Thanks,
