Sure. Get another freephoneline account with another email address, pick a phone number, pay $50 for the SIP settings, and you have another separate line for your ATA device.

Thanks.
I was kind of looking for an integrated solution, you know: Not having to fund two different accounts for long distance or login/logout/login/logout to listen to voicemail, etc.
In other words: I was expecting an easier / customer-service oriented solution, but that'll have to do.
Thanks again!

You can always delve into the world of a PBX! They are very addictive once you start however. You become your own little switchboard where everything you wanted to do with your phone lines suddenly becomes possible. They are not too difficult to set up either, and if you put it on a Rasberry Pi like I have, the power consumption is very minimal, and the hardware is very cheap also.
