In that case I would start with the Telephone preset in Equalisation under
the Effects Menu of Audacity. It gives a quite authentic telephone sound.

Specifically, I'm looking for a voice that's coming over the phone.

Hi Annabelle
There are many files on the site you gave and my patience ran out after
trying the first one, which featured engaged tones at the point you
nominated. Are you looking for tones or a voice that sounds like it is
coming over the phone? I will make some suggestions for voice, as that is
within the ambit of my expertise.
I found a couple of options under the Audacity Effects menu. Equalisation
includes a Telephone option, which is pretty authentic. I achieved a
similar but not quite as authentic sound by using Base and Treble and
pulling out the base. Knocking off some treble would improve that sound. I
would go with Effects and possibly tweak the Telephone settings if the sound
is not quite what you want.

Hi, it's Annabelle.
I'm wondering, what's the best effects plugin that will make an audio
recording sound like it was recorded over the phone? I even wonder if
there's a special microphone that sounds like what you hear over the phone?
for example, listen to this recording I got from http://www.phonetrips.com,
specifically at the 16:30 mark, and you'll hear the kind of sound I'm
looking for. http://www.wideweb.com/phonetrips/PSRecsHQ.mp3
