Not quite, John. With a few exceptions our phone system Emails voicemail recordings as MP3 attachments. I found a script 'sendmailmp3' that intercepts the .WAV format outgoing message. Strips it apart, converts the WAV to an MP3 using LAME, then reassembles the outgoing message and passes it along to sendmail.
The dream is to have the phone system magically know that Chris is in or out of the building and react accordingly. The reaction, directing calls one way or another, is easy. The hard part appears to have a method of detection that doesn't cause excess battery drain. I've tried to convince him to have an aircraft transponder implanted, but he's resistant to the idea.
