Using asterisk voicemail does not allow this unless they pay for another line. Voicemail is a less expensive option ($10/month) than another line (~$50/month).
I am looking at getting a DID from a VOIP provider to try and make the price point a little better but, being in Victoria,BC the options are non-existant at the moment. Vonage and Primus are the only two I have found that provide local (area code 250) DID's, but neither support integration with asterisk. I discussed faxdetect but, as they are a law firm, they live and die by the fax and never want a situation where they can't send or recieve a fax. As well, I couldn't figure out how to dynamically disable echocancel and echotraining on a line. My experience is that fax is less reliable with those enabled.
