I am having the same problems. No matter what I try, * won't detect
faxes. I have faxdetect=both in zaptel.conf and my extensions.conf
looks like this:

[fromPSTN]
exten => s,1,Answer
exten => s,2,DigitTimeout(2)
exten => s,3,ResponseTimeout(10)
exten => s,4,Wait(3)
exten => s,5,Background(custom/ivr-greeting)

exten => i,1,Wait(1)
exten => i,2,Background(pbx-invalid)   ; "That's not valid, try again"
exten => i,3,Goto(s,5)

exten => t,1,Background(goodbye)
exten => t,2,Hangup

exten => fax,1,Goto(fax,s,1)
