Notify Code in full message

[stevej]

In version 5.0, is there a way to send the Notify Code out in a page along with the full message. Unless I'm misunderstanding it looks to be the code or message and I would like to send both.

Thanks

The "Notify Code" is intended for use with numeric only pagers - NOT with Alphanumeric (text) devices

To expound a little on what OzCom said, the Notify Code field is only ever referenced in one of two cases:

1) If you have Alpha unchecked, indicating that the recipient's device is numeric only, and you send an Alpha message to this recipient, the program knows that the recipient's device won't be able to read it, so it sends whatever numerical value is entered in to the Notify Code field.

2) If you have Notify Only checked in the recipients' settings, the program will only ever send the numerical value in the Notify Code field to that recipient.

I assumed as much, but was wondering if there was a way to force it to go out with alpha messages. What I would like to do is add a unique identifier other than the email address on SMTP recipients.

Well, you can create a carrier level template for the program so that any messages passed to the carrier are formatted in a certain way. For example, you could have a template that looked like this:

999: %Message%

That would tell PageGate that any message passed through this carrier should have 999: prefixed to it. Is that what you're looking for?

That would be close. What I need to do is send messages to multiple recipients to the same email account. The receiving email server would sort based on message content. It's overly complicated, I know, but that's what I have to work with.

If there is a switch for the recipient name it would work perfectly (like %FullName%: %Message%), if not I would just create multiple templates. Is there documentation on creating 'carrier level templates.'

Thanks.

Well, %FullName% is a variable that can be used. Here's how to create a template:

1) Run Notepad in Windows.

2) Configure the template to look the way you want. This is the full list of variables that can be used:
%Sender%
%Subject%
%Message%
%Reliapage%
%Recipient%
%OrigRecipient%
%FullName%
%Comment1%
%Comment2%
%Comment3%
%Comment4%
%Date%
%Time%
%RequestedDate%
%RequestedTime%
%MilitaryTime%
%RequestedMilitaryTime%
%TimeZone%
%ShortTimeZone%
%Station%
%LoginName%
%ComputerName%

3) Go to File - Save As.

4) Change directory in to the PageGate Program directory.

5) Change the "Files of Type" to All Files so that Notepad DOESN'T stick a .txt extension on the file.

6) Name the template carriername.mtp - for example, if you have a carrier named Sprint, you would name the file Sprint.mtp

7) Save the file, then close Notepad.

8) Stop and Start the PageGate services.
