Hi all - 

  Does anyone know of an anwering machine/speakerphone program in Linux? 
I've searched linux.tucows, linux.DaveCentral, CNET, et al, and only found
one speakerphone program which doesn't work too well. Also tried using
a windows prog called Communicate Pro, but it won't work under WINE,
either using WINE's dll files, or windows native dll's. I figure if my
SuSE box is running all the time anyway, I might as well use it for such
services, instead of paying Bell.  While I'm online, I use CallWave
(internet answering machine), again a windows program.  So in order to have
Callwave running at the same time that I surf in Linux (two separate
machines networked together), I had to use WinGate.  This way I dial out
with Windows but surf on the Linux box. Anyway, any knowledge on such a
program would help me to simplify things.

Thanks muchly, mein Gurus.
