| Start All - this will start all the installed dialers, if the PageGate application is currently running.
|
| Stop All - this will stop all the installed dialers, if the PageGate application is currently running.
|
| Polling Interval - sets how often (in seconds) the dialers check their queues for messages waiting to be sent out.
|
| Dial Threshold - sets the number of messages that can be pending for a single carrier, before an additional dialer is started to assist in delivery. More than one dialer must be purchased for this setting to have any effect.
|
| Retries - sets the number of times the same message will be retried before the message is marked as bad. It also sets the number of times a carrier will be retried before all pending messages for it will be marked as bad.
|
| Retry interval - sets how long (in seconds) a failed delivery attempt will wait until it is tried again.
|
|
|
| Local Domain - This is the domain name to be used by PageGate when sending SMTP (email) messages. This setting should be an internet domain, not a Microsoft networking domain. When sending email, this is the domain that PageGate will use when talking to other mail servers. This setting must be a valid domain name for SMTP delivery to work properly.
|
|
|
| Postmaster - the Postmaster setting is an email address to where all warnings, alerts, bad and undeliverable messages are sent. It is very useful to set this field to an email address that can be collected by PageGate's administrator. The email address set here can either be a mailbox maintained by PageGate, or a mailbox on another mail server. Leaving this field blank will drop all messages that would normally go to the postmaster.
|
|
|
| Relay All Mail - check this box to send all of PageGate's outbound email to a single mail server (typically your ISP's mail server). This mail server (relay server) will then deliver PageGate's mail to its final destination. This option is commonly used with slow internet connections.
|
|
|
| Relay Server - this is the server to spool all of PageGate's outbound email to if the 'Relay All Mail' option is checked. Otherwise, this server will be used only if PageGate is unable to deliver mail directly to its destination.
|
|
|
| DNS Server 1 & 2 - If you are not using a relay server, then PageGate must deliver email directly to its destination. PageGate uses these DNS servers to lookup the mail server that hosts the mailboxes that outbound email is addressed to.
