this is why they invented suspend and wake up on modem calls.

Taking a totally different track than all the answers you got till now...
are you sure you'll be saving money? 
I just looked at my latest phone bill, I pay 4.23 NIS per month for the
Voicemail Box service. 
Heck, just the electricity bill for keeping your computer turned on for a
whole day will probably run higher... or the increased wear-and-tear on your
computer (fans, etc.) from being turned on 24/7/365. Not to mention the time
you'll spend on setup and upkeep of the software (time == money).

Of course, if you already keep your computer turned on all the time these
points (except the last) are fairly moot. But still, saving 4.23 NIS a
month? I mean, really, give me a break. If you say you're doing this as a
learning project I can understand, or you _must_ have some features that you
can't get from Bezeq, but otherwise, seems like a waste of your time...

Just my 4.23 NIS worth... :-)
