 |

Can anyone tell me how I get the emails in my The Bat! account to the NotePager Pro?
The help files aren't helping much.
Thanks

1. Setup The Bat! normally (refer to documentation).
2. Test The Bat! to be sure it automatically collects new email messages properly.
3. Setup NotePager Pro normally (refer to documentation).
4. Send a test message to your wireless device to verify NotePager Pro's configuration.
5. In NotePager Pro make note of your recipient's 'Short Name', found on the recipient's setup screen.
6. In The Bat!, go to 'Account' -> 'Sorting office/filters'.
7. Create a new filter that will filter the messages you want sent to your wireless device.
8. On the 'Actions' tab of the filter screen, add the 'Export message to file' action.
9. In the 'Export message to file' field, enter the path to your NotePager Pro program folder, and add 'message.asc' to the end of the path, as the filename (i.e. C:\Program Files\NotePager Pro\message.asc).
10. For the 'Export format', choose 'Plain text'.
11. Click on the 'Template...' button.
12. Enter the following into the template text box:
mypager
%FROMNAME
%SUBJECT
%TEXT
Substitute the short name of your recipient in NotePager Pro, for 'mypager'. Other formatting or macros can be used to adjust the text sent to NotePager Pro.
13. For 'When the destination file exists', choose 'Increment file name'.
14. Click 'Ok' to save your new filter's settings.
15. Leave The Bat! and NotePager Pro running so new messages are collected, filterd, and (if necessary) sent to your wireless device |

I did the set up and indivdually each product works. I created the filter and when I test it the log file in the notepager pro folder says 'message.asc.bad'. I have double and triple checked the filters and tried different things to try and get it to work but it keeps coming back with the same thing. Any thoughts?
Thanks

| If you would, email that .bad file along with the Dialer Log from the NotePager Pro to support at notepage dot com |

| I have sent the log files requested but haven't heard back about what could possibly be causing the problem.

| Just as an update to the thread, the issue was the variables specified in the template. Everything seems to be working now. |
