Software to Answer the Phone with Choices

[W. Watson]

Is there PC software that will answer my phone, and give the caller a choice
of continuing, leaving a message or getting a informational message (say,
about the weather for the day)?

Answering system software comes to mind. Often, software like this is
bundled with modems, since a modem is needed to handle the call.

Typing phone answer software into Google gave me about 85,300,000
hits. My guess is that at least one of them might have something like
what you are looking for.

Thanks, but I'm quite familiar with Google. As I recall, Google has been
around for quite a few years, and probably 10 people on the planet do not
know about it. I've hit a lot of sites without any good results.
Actually, I found two, but neither have responded to my request for more
information. I suspect there might be a better NG for this question.

Although I have a primitive version of this (dating from '98) you could have
a look at Supervoice, it may do what you want.

I'll look for it. I think Google might be a safe bet.
