Thanks for the vote of confidence but I fear it's premature. Hopefully
someday I can make it suitable for CVS though.

Those would all be cool. Calling party number I have implemented as part
of message envelope, where I have tried a somewhat dubious method to play
the recorded name if the call originated from another system user. I'm
definitely interested Comedian Mail myself at the moment (to the extent
that I'm qualified to muddle with it). My own to-do list still includes a
few items:
- flagging of messages as urgent, private, etc
- handling urgent, private, etc messages appropriately (still pondering a
sensible way to give urgent messages priority during playback)
- mailbox options for individual users to specify a couple of numbers
(other than 0 for operator) to which a caller could transfer him/herself
- a secretarial password that would allow listening to message headers for
new messages and nothing else
