FileMaker as an Answering Machine?

in FileMaker Plug-Ins

Featured Replies

Is it possible to use FileMaker as an answering machine? Can this be achieved with plug-ins to store messages in container fields. Or probably better a plug-in/application that stores the messages and creates a link within FileMaker. Ideally callers will have the option to dial the appropriate extension to leave a message for a certain person - who would then get a list of messages to access.

My system/network includes:

- OSX Panther

- 1 Server and 6 users. FileMaker Server 7 and FileMaker Pro 7.

- G4 1.25GHZ Server. eMac G4 1.25GHZ for Users.

- 5 old blueberry G3 iMacs collecting dust.

- PABX with 6 lines in (hunting) and 9 extensions (Not ADSL)

- 1 separate fax line (Not ADSL)

- ADSL line for email and internet access (512k) with 3GB monthly limit.

Thanks - Peter
