Hi guys,
I have to say I am
pretty fed up with all this vmail in my mailbox, but agree that there is no need
for the house to have a high tech phone/vmail system
When I lived there we had one phone, no answering machine.
In the fall semester the pledges were responsible for answering it on the third
ring. In the spring semester everyone pitched in. Messages
were left in peoples mail slots. It worked just
fine.
And in any case I bet
99.9% of the residents have their own cell phones and get virtually all of their
phone calls there anyway.
So, go the easy way. Put a phone on the wall and be done
with it.
Regards
Harry Laswell, MOM74

What humor did you see in his message? I agree completely with what Marc
and others have said.
A new phone system is not a top priority
of the house. The house has to many other critical needs to be covering
half the cost (buying servers etc;) of a new high-tech phone
system.

I'm glad to see that Marc hasn't lost his
sense of humor :) We're thinking along the lines of an Adtran channel
bank with one of the gui based asterisk distros like trixbox on an embedded
system like a soekris net5501 or a mini-itx system if a 5501 can't handle
the load. Any suggestions?
