I'm not sure where you're getting the idea that I want them to send texts. I don't want unnecessary messages on my mobile phone, since it's with me all the time, where I feel more compelled to look at it. I would rather they send a voicemail to my landline and I can listen to the message when I feel like it. Most of the time I'm working on my computer and I can hear the voicemail being recorded in the background, and that's all I need. By using the landline I'm offloading relatively unimportant stuff away from the more distracting device, the mobile.
