PageGate SMTP Recipient Setup Transcript
for Video:
Welcome to the tutorial on how to add an SMTP
recipient in PageGate.
he first step is to run the PageGate Admin, so
go to your start menu, go to your programs, find
the PageGate program group, and left click on
the PageGate Admin.
Once the PageGate Admin comes up, find the recipient
section.
Right click on it, then left click on Add.
You can name the recipient whatever you please.
After entering the recipient's name, you'll notice
that if you left click in the recipient field,
it should fill it in for you.
The type should pretty much always be normal,
so leave it at that option.
In the carrier field, click on the dropdown arrow
and select one of your SMTP based carriers.
You should then notice the Email To field below
the carrier field. In the Email To field, you
should enter the phone number and domain of the
device and device's carrier.
If you're not sure what to enter here, please
visit our website, www.notepage.net Once at our
website, on the left hand side, click on the Support
section.
Once in the support section, you should see
the SMTP Delivery Settings link.
Left click on that link.
You'll then be taken to a page that lists all
of the domains for all of the carriers that we
currently know of.
After finding your carrier's relevant information,
go back into PageGate.
In the email to field, you'll want to enter the
recipient's ten digit cel phone number, no spaces
or dashes, followed by the @ sign and then the
carrier's SMTP delivery domain.
Next you'll see the Max Characters field.
If you've gone through our Carrier tutorial,
you'll remember that the carrier also has a max
characters. The Carrier's max characters determines
the number of characters this carrier can receive
in one message. This field, in the recipient settings,
determines the maximum number of characters this
recipient should be able to receive. If the Recipient's
Max characters is higher than the Carrier's Max
characters, the program will split the message
into multiple messages.
For example, if the carrier's Max Characters
is set to 160 and we have our Max Characters set
to 320 and we then send a 200 character message
to this recipient, the program will send one 160
character and one 40 character message to the
recipient.
Next you should see the Notify Code field.
This field is primarily used in tandem with
numeric only pagers and is only ever referenced
in one of two cases, which we'll get to in a moment.
Below the notify code, you should see these six
check boxes. If you have a check in the Notify
Only box, the program will only ever send this
recipient the numerical sequence you've entered
into the Notify Code.
If the device you're sending to is an alphanumeric
device, Alpha should be checked. If it is a numeric
only device, Alpha should not be checked.
If alpha is unchecked and you attempt to send
an alpha message to this device, the program will
instead send the notify code.
Below that is the Reliapage checkbox. If this
is enabled, the program will autonumber every
message sent to this device.
Below that is the Send subject checkbox.
If this is enabled, the program will send a
subject line as part of the SMTP message.
Next is the "Don't send From" checkbox.
If this is checked, the program will not send
any sender's information to this device. Next
is the Don't send 'from' domain checkbox.
If this is checked, the program will not send
the information you've entered into the local
domain field to this device.
Drop non-printable characters should be enabled.
After entering your information and selecting
your preferences, left click on Apply.
When you do, you should see the recipient show
up in the available recipient list.
This concludes the tutorial on how to add an
SMTP recipient into PageGate. For more tutorials,
