It's probably easier just to setup Postfix on the Hylafax server to handle mail sent to number@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx, as looking at the setup for that to implement it on my systems, you're using postfix's alias' files to route the mail data through a shell script.  Exchange systems prior to 2007 don't really know what a shell script even is (2007 and PowerShell give it some pretty advanced, almost UNIX-like capabilities though...something might be possible there)

Now Exchange usually runs a DNS server on itself, so if that's your primary, you'll want to toss in an A record ('alias') that points 'fax.domain.com' to the IP of your Hylafax server.  If you already have an A record, then add a CNAME instead for 'fax.domain.com' to point at 'whatever.domain.com'.  That'll help point things in the right direction.

For the Postfix-side of things, have a looksee at http://hylafax.sourceforge.net/howto/faxing.php#ss5.4

It's not too difficult to get the routing correct....the fun part is getting what you submit via e-mail to come out of a fax machine looking halfway correct :)
