Inaki,

I think that all of what you ask for can probably be achieved through 
some combination of HTTP/HTML/flash, IMAP (possibly including extensions 
being developed in the lemonade WG) and SIP MWI. Vendors may currently 
use proprietary mechanisms for voicemail access from desktop phones but 
I rather suspect existing standards would suffice.

Thanks,
Anders
