asterisk users - Aug 2005 - Asterisk (Comedian Mail) and AUDIX

Has anyone been able to successfully integrate the Avaya AUDIX voicemail
system with Asterisk?  
 
I have been diligently investigating converting our small (Ontario, Canada)
office to Asterisk, and ditching our Avaya PBX.  However, our head office
(New Jersey, USA) maintains our AUDIX system, and a) have no intentions of
leaving it and b) some users rely upon AUDIX's ability to transfer messages
between voicemail accounts.
 
At worst case, I would like our Asterisk users to be able to bounce to an
AUDIX mailbox for voicemail storage.  At best, I would like the users to use
Comedian mail, with AUDIX messages from our head office forwarded
automagically to Comedian.
 
Please, help.

Haven't tried it, but sounds doable.

Our Definity admin says he could make fantom exenstions with mailboxes.  
Your dial plan then would, instead of calling the asterisk voicemail 
system on unavable or busy, send them to the Definity fantom extension.  
The problem being, vm indicators would not be present.
