Hi, all. I've got an old Telrad PBX with an Emagen(?) voicemail box. The<br>
VM box, itself, is beginning to show its age. Big-time. We're thinking it<br>
might be time to look for a replacement. I'd love to install Asterisk<br>
with an FXO card or something, but I don't think it supports whatever<br>
protocol legacy PBX's used to speak to VM systems. If someone can tell me<br>
I'm wrong, a six pack of their favorite $BEVERAGE will magically appear at<br>
their door.<br>
<br>
Thanks much!<br>
<br>
