That sounds very impressive. I regret I can't give it a try now during my dial-up vacation but I am looking forward to doing so when I am back.

Hi,
Just want to add a few comments.
SipUMS is an open source project and designed to be a commercial grade Unified Messaging System. It is mainly written in Perl with more than 20,000 line of code. Also it has a companion for web admin.
It is a feature-rich and very flexible system. When a message is left in the mailbox, it is forwarded to the user's email account as well as saved on the server. A user can dial in to check, save, and delete messages via a normal telephone. It also sends a MWI (Message Waiting Indicator) signal to an IP phone to inform messages in the mailbox. If a message is deleted on the server, it is also deleted in the email box if IMAP email server is used. The above is only a few features supported.
To make the system flexible, every voicemail includes a sequence of actions saved in mysql server. For example, when a user calls in, the first action is to prompt a welcome message, then check the password. If user is authenticated, then prompt number of new and old messages in the system. This sequence can be reprogrammed via a web admin tool so that every domain or even user can has its unique sequence.
I strongly encourage anyone who wants a full-feature voicemail and IVR system to try it out. It is an open source project and free for anyone to use. Servpac is fully behind it. If you read the installation document and still have question, please send the question to our mailing list, sipums in http://lists.servpac.com. We will answer every question you have.
The system relies on ser and sems to run. So the admin of this system is expected to know ser and sems. Since it is sip based, you don't have to use ser as a proxy server. You can use another proxy server and just forward all voicemail and IVR calls to it.
Best regards, Richard

Hello Voicemail and IVR Users, The Servpac development team (located Honolulu, Hawaii) would like announce the Alpha version of SipUMS. We ported our old OpenUMS project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/linuxvm) to the work as a SEMS/IVR plugin. Feel free to download it and try it out SipUMS:
http://developer.berlios.de/projects/sipums/
In the distribution you will find detailed
installation instructions. Make sure that you have set up Perl support for SEMIVR. If you run into any problems installing it, you can subscribe to our mailing list at http://lists.servpac.com and ask questions. We hope that SipUMS can grow and expand in scope and users. The system is pretty flexible and has many IVR features. Out of the box, it has a fully functional voicemail. The web interface is written in perl-CGI but is being ported to php. We look forward to getting feedback from other users in the community on this project.
