Over here in Finland, you can get a small plug-type device (we use these
huge ugly phone plugs instead of modulars) which you can place between
the answering machine and the wallplug.  If an extension phone is lifted,
the answering machine is cut off.  The price is an exorbitant $20 for
a 5x5cm piece of plastic with probably one relay inside it !
