Can you tell me why I want that?

I just want software that will interface to low-cost POTS hardware
(like the voice modem I already have, for example), and will let me
code up a little voicemail flowchart for callers to walk through,
leaving messages as they go.

It looks like Asterix PBX is aimed at PBX systems, which I don't
have and don't intend to get.

It does mention the LinuxJack, http://www.linuxjack.org/, which at
$270 is really pushing my definition of "low-cost POTS hardware"
but if it works cleanly is a possibility I'll consider.  Also
linuxjack.org has links to other interesting-looking sites :)
