Clearly, you will prpbably kill an analog modem by plugging it into a 
phone line. this has been talked about in other publications. IBM sells a 
tester that can be pluged into the connector to test the line.

I have seen 2 solutions in the magazines. One is the old idea of an 
acoustic coupler that is straped to the phone's handset. The other is a 
box that goes between the handset and the phone itself that has a 
connector for the modem. Old memories have these priced above $100 but 
not too much.
