PageGate GetMail & Exchange

[peterlyttle]

Hello,

We've recently purchased the GetMail Interface. I've been doing a bit of reading on the GetMail Interface but from what I've read its more for mobile_number@domain.com

What I would like to do is any email sent to pagegate1@domain.com go to recipient group 1 and pagegate2@domain.com go to recipient group 2

Any advise the best way to configure this (with or without Distribution Groups) would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Peter

On your existing mail server, create a sub-domain and redirect the MX record of that sub-domain to the IP of the PageGate computer. For example, let's say you have whatever.com as your email domain. Create a sub-domain of paging.whatever.com and then redirect the MX record of that sub-domain to the IP of the PageGate computer.

Then go in to the PG Admin and go to the Interfaces - GetMail - Settings. Set the Local Domain for GetMail to match the sub-domain, example paging.whatever.com.

As soon as you do that, all existing groups and recipients in the program become valid email addresses on the sub-domain. So, let's say you have a group called pagegate2. You could then send an email to pagegate2@paging.whatever.com and Pagegate would see the email, read it in and send it to the pagegate2 group.

Spot on thanks, used the Smarthost rather than the MX record and thats seemed to work ok on the trial license.
