Using a Sun as a telephone answering machine

[Mark S. Handcock]

A neat way to store/manipulate telephone messages would be to use the
audio capabilities of a SPARC station coupled with the usual mailer. That
is for the SPARC to answer the phone, announce a pre-recorded message, and
digitally record the message. The messages would be date stamped and
annotated for later playback within a standard mail program.

Does anyone know of public domain or commercial applications of this?  I
will summarize for the net.

Thanks
