The idea with minivm is to have a larger set of unique apps. Don't  
hesitate
to create a new one if your new functionality doesn't fit into the  
existing set.
We don't want another huge voicemail app ;-)

I think you need a function to concatenate two recordings, or prepend/ 
append to
an existing prompt. Then you need the MinivmForward app - if its' still
needed. After concatenating the prompt, it's just another voicemail
to store.

On my wishlist is imap/odbc integration to minivoicemail.
