Does anyone know a easy way of transfering a voicemail from a Telecom mobile to a computer? The phone in question is a telecom R54, although the voice mail actually exists at the telecom end not the phone end.

I know for a fee they can pull it off the VM system and send it to you, but the fee was higher than I was willing to pay when I wanted it done.

It might be possible to send unanswered calls to a free 2talk number, which can automatically send a recording of the message to you via e-mail. David.

Good idea, now just to go back in time, set this up and wait for the call.
