| In the settings of each of your recipients, you should see a checkbox that says "Send Subject". When this checkbox is checked, the program will use the first few characters of the message as the subject (up to, but not including, any colons).

Changed and marked the box that says "Send Subject" but it keeps sending TEXT MESSAGE in the subject area ! This is how it comes across!
From:Voicemail@cboe.com
TO: (USER)
Subject:Text Message
CBOE voice mail message received.

| Since you have the option checked and it's still putting "Text Message" in the subject line, taht means the program can't find any valid subject line data. Since the program knows that there HAS to be something in the subject line and it won't leave it blank, it puts "Text Message" in by default.

You can't - if there is no subject, the vast majority of email systems on the planet will reject the message as SPAM. PageGate inserts the words "TEXT MESSAGE" in the SUBJECT field of the SMTP protocol when it can't find something in the body of the message that should be treated as a subject. One way to overcome this woyuld be to use a colon in the body of the message. PageGate will place the text prior to the colon in the subject section
EXAMPLE: If the message is "ATTENTION PARAMEDICS: Need 2 for special detail blah blah blah"
then SMTP recipients will see ATTENTION PARAMEDICS in the subject line and the balance of the message in the body_________________ Aaron D. Osgood
