Method and apparatus are disclosed for producing voicemail (verbal) messages from various text and voice input messages destined for a recipient. Digital text image input signals from, for example, document scans or facsimile devices are converted into ASCII text input signals and chronologically merged with ASCII text input signals received from, for example, E-Mail messages or personal computer files or displays. Each of the ASCII text input signals is converted into a voice message signal and stored chronologically with other verbally-converted text messages and direct voice input messages in a personal voicemail mailbox associated with the recipient. Each of the verbally-converted text and direct voice input messages stored in the personal voicemail mailbox includes a verbal indication of a time of arrival and a source of the message. The recipient is able to access the personal voicemail mailbox and receive the stored verbally-converted text and direct voice input messages in verbal form in the chronological order received. <IMAGE> |
