 |

I am evaluating the PageGate software to use as our gateway for our paging company. I have installed the trial version on a test server and seen the various capabilities that it offers. However, I want to make sure that we are able to do everything we need before buying.
Our scenario:
Pages sent to PageGate will be coming from various sources:
- Our web site. Through our website front page, users can enter the device PIN and message to send a page (using the Getweb interface)
- Via Email. Users can send an email to <PIN>@ourpagingdomain.com to send a page (using the Getmail interface)
- Via Modem. Users can connect via dialup to send a page (using the Gettap interface)
Each of these methods will generate a paging message to be sent to our paging terminal via TAP using a direct serial connection. I already tried this and it works perfectly.
For some particular recipients, these messages should ALSO be sent out to an external email address. For example: a paging message sent to recipient 1111111 will be sent only to the paging terminal while a message sent to recipient 2222222 will be sent to the paging terminal as well as the john@hotmail.com email address.
What is the best way to configure this using ad-hoc whenever possible? I know this scenario is easy to configure when all recipients are named, but we have a lot of users, so that's why we want to use ad-hoc as much as possible.
Thanks in advance.

| Everything you want to do can be done with the exception of forwarding email. If you had a static list of recipients, you could forward email but there's just not a way to set it up with ad-hoc recipients.

| I see. Knowing that the data store for the application is MS Access, could I then mass-insert all our 3000+ pagers as static recipients into the pagegate database using SQL queries (assuming, of course, that we have purchased an appropriate number of licenses)?

| Right, you could do that. If you would, send an email to support@notepage.com so I can send you the integration information about how to do it.
