I think what you are looking for is named SuperVoice :

I was using it to receive faxes and voicemail. It didn't email me my
fax and/or voicemail but it would page me the number of faxes and
voicemail I had everytime it received one or the other.

The only problem I was having was that, since running on Win9x,
sometime my phone line would stay busy and that would signal the time
to go home and reboot the computer.

Maybe some people would like Asterisk for windows, but I would not
touch it with a ten foot pole :)
