One described a service called Forwarded Call Information (FCI) which was described as a facility that provided the telephone number called and 'other calling information' to telephone messaging systems, such as voice mail services. It acknowledged that in some cases this could include the caller's phone number, which could be recorded/displayed with special equipment. Does anyone know anything more about this? How is it related to ANI? The flyer specifically states it is *not* related to Caller ID. Jeff Sicherman
