Not many.  Basically, if you have Zaptel devices, you can use
ZapBarge to listen to those conversations without having to
physically tap the lines.  Beyond that, there isn't a capability
to selectively listen to portions of calls.  You could choose to
record all calls with Monitor, for example.

IANAL, but this seems like a legal grey area, as the FCC has
been pushing against regulating VoIP services, which may mean
that VoIP services are not legally considered communication, which
would exclude them from CALEA.  However, this is for lawyers to
argue in court and for a judge to decide.
