I get it too when my wife calls from Boeing (their building is not on
the Boeing campus thus not supplied service directly from the BTN
(Boeing Telephone Network)) and gets our Audix off of our Sys 85. She
decides not to leave me a message and hangs up. A few seconds later her
phone rings and she hears nothing. I get an Audix message of her
answering the phone.

Now there is a powerful Audix feature: if you don't leave a message it
calls you back and forces you to talk to it!
