Recipient(s)

Description - Under the main recipient object, you will see a recipient object for each new recipient that is setup (recipients were called 'Users' in previous versions of WebGate).

Functions (accessible by right-clicking on the object)

	Send Message - this will send a message to the selected recipient

	Requeue Messages - this allows you to re-send messages that have already been sent to this recipient

	Cancel Messages - this will cancel all pending messages for the selected recipient

	Pending Messages - this will show all pending messages for the selected recipient. It also allows you to cancel a single pending message for the recipient

	Delete - this will delete the selected recipient. Note: all of WebGate's modules are temporarily paused and then restarted when a recipient is deleted, so as not to remove a recipient that is currently being processed. When removing a large number of recipients, it is most efficient to manually stop WebGate's modules, delete the recipients, and then restart the modules.

Settings

	Recipient - a short unique name to identify the recipient
	Full Name - the recipients full name or long description
	Recipient Type - WebGate supports four different recipient types: Normal, Multi-Page, Ad-Hoc, and Email. Normal recipients are used most of the time. They represent a single pager or wireless messaging device. Multi-Page recipients can be created to accept multiple recipients within a single message (see the Multi-Page section under each of the interfaces for more detailed information). Ad-Hoc recipients can be created to accept ID/PIN numbers in messages, and use them for delivery to carriers (see the Ad-Hoc section under each of the interfaces for more detailed information. Please note that the Ad-Hoc feature is only available with licenses of 5000 or greater). Email recipients are used to setup mailboxes for email use only. There is no paging capabilities connected to these accounts. WebGate can be used as a standard mail server for company email by setting up recipients of the 'Email' type. Depending on the type of recipient chosen, some of the following fields may not be shown.
	Enabled Services - check the interfaces that will be allowed as a source of messages for this recipient.
	Carrier - a list of all the available carriers. Choose the carrier that this recipient uses.
	ID/PIN - the ID or PIN number for the pager
	Max Chars - The number of characters WebGate will send to this recipient from a message. If this number is greater than the Max Characters setting for the carrier, the message will be broken up into multiple messages (according to the carrier's max character settings), numbered, and then sent.
	Notify Code - If the 'Notify Only' setting is enabled, this message will be sent instead of the actual message text.

	Notify Only - check this if the recipient should receive the 'Notify Code' (above) rather than the actual message. This setting is commonly used with numeric pagers.
	Alpha - check this box if the recipient's device (pager) accepts both letters and numbers
	Reliapage - when reliapage is enabled, WebGate will sequentially number each message it sends out to the recipient. This is useful for detecting if a message has been missed (a number is missing). Messages then can be re-sent by using the 'Requeue' function.
	Don't send 'from' - checking this box will stop WebGate from sending the sender's name (the 'from' field) at the beginning of each message.
	Don't send 'from' domain - checking this box will remove the domain name portion of a sender's address, from the 'from' field of the message. This can save characters especially when a typical message sender has a long domain name in their email address.
	Drop non-printable characters - many pagers don't accept formatting characters like carriage returns, line feeds, and tabs. Check this box if you don't want these 'not printable characters' sent out in the message.

Groups - the groups object allows you to choose which groups (if any) this recipient belongs to

Email - if the email service is enabled for this recipient, this object allows you to setup advanced email settings, like the ability to collect received email with a regular email client program, the ability to collect messages for this recipient from a remote mail server, the ability to forward a copy of each message received by this recipient to another email address, and the ability to create email aliases for this recipient.

	Mailbox Name - by default, the email address of a WebGate recipient is the same as the recipient's name. This can be changed by entering a different mailbox name here.
	Forward Copy To - if you would like a copy of every message received by this recipient, sent to an email address, enter an email address here.
	Enable POP Access to Messages - messages received by a WebGate recipient can be stored in a mailbox, making them accessible from regular email clients (such as Outlook, Netscape, Eudora, etc.). Check this box to enable this option.
	POP Password - If the 'Enable POP Access to Messages' box is checked, you must provide a password here to protect the mailbox from unauthorized access.
	POP Mail Collection - WebGate can collect messages for each recipient from one or more mailboxes hosted elsewhere. Click on this button to display the setup screen for this feature.
	Email Aliases - each WebGate recipient can accept messages from more than one local email address. These addtional names are called 'aliases'. Click on this button to display the setup screen for this option.

WebPage - If the web service is enabled for this recipient, this object allows you to choose a template, and to enter information for the automatic generation of a personal webpage for this recipient. See the 'GetWeb' section for more details.
