I’d vote for utilizing voicemail to e-mail exclusively on a home PBX as well and not store the voicemails on the PBX, but to each his own.

What VOIP carrier did you end up going with? I am doing a home PBX and looking at different options for the SIP trunk.

It seems like this is a thing that would really work in only a few countries. For instance in Latvia, a home telephony line would cost as little as 3lvl (6$) for free incoming calls and relatively cheap outgoing calls. And if the phone is something you use just for getting calls, then going the VOIP route might not be worth it, unless you have a big house/family and you really want the manageability the enterprise grade PBX would provide.

It is a great little project to try out though!
