The tool you need depends on exactly what you are trying to do.
I confess I am not clear on that from your message.

I just did a Google search using

    "microphone to usb adapter"

I found there is such a gadget allowing you to record audio using a
microphone.

If you are trying to record directly from the telephone line you, of
course, can use an internal modem or an external via USB port thus using
the computer as a voice-mail machine.

I have the latter combination, but have yet to hook it up.

I did not know you could buy motherboards that do not support built in
sound, but I haven't built a system in a while.
