The 'simple' way is to buy it 'off the shelf'. It's called "IVR", aka
"Interactive Voice Response". Inexpensive (even _free_) software to
do this on a PC-type box is readily available. It may require a
"voice/data" modem, or a dedicated phone-line interface card.
If you insist on DIY, the answer to "how do i send the voice data out"
is 'generate the analog wave-form and impress it on the phone line.
If that isn't sufficient 'clue', you don't have the requisite skills
to attempt such a project -- use the "simple" way, mentioned in the
previous paragraph.
For 'digitalized voice' stored anywhere, you have to have "something"
to take that digital data, and convert it back to an _analog_
waveform, to send over the POTS circuit. DSP chips greatly simplify
the process.
