One thing you might want to look at is running a web server like
Apache on the computer where the voicemail files are and have the
directory where they are so you can access them with, say,
http://localhost/voicemail/msg1.flac

You could then paste the URL for the file you want into the Internet
Radio page and stream it to the SqueezeBox.  I've done this on my
machine using Windows Apache and Ogg Vorbis files.
