If I understand Call Burner correctly, and I might not, it will record what you tell it to. If you tell it to record every conversation, it will record every conversation. That, however, raises a few moral and legal questions that I'm sure I don't need to point out. I think this conversation started out with a question about how to get voicemail into another format. I don't think Call Burner is made for recording voicemail, though I suppose if it can actually answer calls like Pamela can, it could do that. I urge caution, though, in using Call Burner to record things, lest you record more than intended and open up quite a can of worms unrelated to voicemail.

I thought I remembered something about voicemail in there so I did some experimenting. I left a voicemail to myself. I know I did it because I did it from my phone while sitting in front of my computer. Just as a matter of information, the scripts served me well, announcing each step of the process as it happened. That is, the incoming call was announced. When I finished leaving the voicemail and hung up my phone, Skypewatch told me that my telephone number had just sent me voicemail. Three cheers for Skypewatch. Anyway, then I went looking for the voicemail. No problem finding it in the history tab of Skype, but we know that isn't in a format we can't use, so went into call burner. No problem finding the conversation in the conversations folder. As you say, all are listed by time. In that folder, the only thing that is there is this stupid e4.ini file which tends to be there in any c onversation folder. Normally, in the case of conversations, there will also be another file in the folder that will be named something like recording of call from John or recording of call to phone number. When I opened the e4.ini file in this particular folder, , it didn't appear that there was anything in it. Looked in the voicemailCache folder and had no problem finding my number, but it was only an .ini file that appeared to have nothing in it. Maybe I need to turn on some option in call burner to make this work right. I'm not sure because while that programme's distributor is quite responsive to user suggestions, it still has not the handiest application to get around in. Will do some more investigating on this.

When you have Call Burner installed and running in Skype, all of the conversations between contacts or phone calls are recorded and, even voice mail, are saved in the "Call Burner" folder, which is in my My Documents Folder. They are all listed by date and time. As far as i can see, all of them are here and they only record the audible message. I've even sent them to the person who was speaking with me, a song, and it is good MP3 quality. I would imagine the same would be true of Pamela and the others; however, I am not sure about Total Recorder, but total recorder recordings are stored in a my music or a designated TR folder. Hopes this helps. James Robinson. s Thanks for posting to the skype english list.
