Integration with CMS Remote Monitoring

PageGate can be easily integrated with CMS Remote Monitoring by using the GetMail module to receive email notifications from CMS Remote Monitoring and process them into SMS messages to recipients's cell phones, pages to their pagers or many other output methods.

To have CMS Remote Monitoring email information to PageGate, you'll first need to configure a sub-domain off of your main email domain and redirect the MX record of the sub-domain to the IP address of the PageGate computer. For example, let's say that our main domain is example.com. We could then have the mail server administrators create the sub-domain paging.example.com and redirect the MX record for this sub-domain to the IP of the PageGate computer. Once this is accomplished, here's how to configure PageGate's GetMail module:

Once you do that, every recipient and group within PageGate becomes a valid email address on the new sub-domain. For example, if we had a group named Alerts, we could send an email to alerts@paging.example.com and GetMail would read the message in, then submit the message for delivery to all of the members of the Alerts group.
