i know it happened once ! with SONY-Z5
but i wonder if any manufacture is still making such feature, by making
the phone itself record your voice mails, and you save it and listen to
it later without using the network provider service...
any ideas?
thanks..

There are loads of apps for Series 60 Nokia phones which will do that for
you, but I've not hear of any pre installed on a mobile when you buy it?

I'm with 3 and when I miss a call I can get it sent as a wav file to my
3mail account and download/listen/store the file for free.

Motorola Elite (analog) had this as an option, and the Motorola T250 had it
as well. Both are discontinued.

No current phone AFAIK at the moment, since why would networks market a
phone that would lose them revenue?

OTOH as stated, phones able to run applications should be able to do this.

Symbian smartphones can be made to do this using additional "call
manager" software.
