Thanks Craig. I looked at their site and it looks like it will do what
I want. I wanted most people to get the default "leave a message". I
also would like a select few people on my blacklist to get "the number
you dialed is disconnected". It looks like VOCP system will do this.

It's been about 6 years since I had anything to do with a modem so I
know to get a voice modem, but beyond that I'm lost. Any ideas?

Thanks

Jim
