Vgetty: USR or ZyXEL?
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
I have been looking into the possibility of setting up my system
as a voicemail box with mgetty+sendfax/vgetty. I have read many documents
on the subject, and have come across many warnings that the voice code is
very beta and only thoroughly works on a ZyXEL voice modem.
Looking up one of these modems (which was a fairly daunting task
- -- you try) revealed that they go for around $350 US. Reading the PDF for
the product ensured me that although it's only a 28.8 modem, it is well
worth the price. However, I would LOVE to use a USR on it, as the price
for a 56k USR voice is somehwere in the range of $120 US.
Are there any major problems vgetty has with US Robotics modems?
Also, is vgetty a practical solution for a voicemail system? What I mean
is, how are events programmed in? Does a user need take raw modem data and
decide what to do with it entirely by his own processing, or is some low
level encapsulation provided (i.e. triggers by touchtone key presses on a
handset)? If it is more trouble than it is worth, I may simply end up
buying a voice system.
Thanks in advance for any info.
