NotePager Pro SMTP Carrier Setup Transcript
for Video:
Welcome to the tutorial on how to add an SMTP
carrier in NotePager Pro.
The first step is to run the program, so find
the icon on your desktop and double click on it.
When the program comes up, if you're using the
trial version, you'll see this prompt.
If you would like to purchase the program, left
click on Register, then left click on the Secure
Online Ordering button.
If you have already purchased, please click on
the Enter Registration Information and watch our
NotePager Pro registration tutorial.
If you would like to continue to use the trial
version, left click on the Continue button.
Once in the program, left click on the Carriers
menu, then left click on Add.
In the Carrier field, enter the name of the carrier
you're going to be sending the messages to.
Examples of carriers are PagePlus, American
Messaging, Sprint, and AT&T.
Once you've entered the carrier's name, left
click the dropdown arrow next to the Protocol,
then select SMTP from the list.
When you do, the program will ask for the Local
Domain.
The Local Domain identifies where your messages
are coming from, not where they're going to.
The information entered into the Local Domain
field MUST be a valid email address.
I recommend using the latter half of your email
address.
For example, I'm going to use notepage.com since
I want people to know that's where the messages
have come from.
After entering the Local Domain, you'll notice
we have two options: Deliver directly to destination
Server and Deliver through local Email server.
To know which to use, we first need to determine
if port 25 is open on your computer.
Here's how to do that:
The first step is to left click on your start
menu, then select Run. In the Run line, type the
word command and left click on ok.
After the command prompt comes up, you'll want
to type in this specific sequence telnet mail.notepage.com
25 After you've entered that line, hit enter on
your keyboard.
If port 25 is open, you'll receive this response:
220 qs1534.pair.com ESMTP Postfix
If port 25 is closed, you'll receive a notification
that says "Unable to connect to the host on port
25"
Once you've finished with the command prompt,
type the word QUIT in all capital letters and
hit enter.
The connection will then close.
Hit the backspace key on your keyboard to return
to the base command prompt, then type the word
exit and hit enter to exit the command prompt.
Back in NotePager Pro, if port 25 is open, make
sure the dot is next to Deliver Directly To Destination
Server.
Then, verify that your primary and secondary
DNS servers are entered into DNS 1 and 2.
If you're unsure as to what these are, please
contact your network administrator or Internet
Service Provider's Tech Support.
If port 25 is closed on your network, move the
dot down to Deliver through Local Email server.
In the Relay Server field, you'll need to enter
the address of your local mail server.
If you're unsure as to what this is, please
contact your network administrator or Internet
Service Provider's Tech Support .
After entering in your information, left click
on Apply to add the carrier into the list and
you'll receive this prompt notifying you that
the carrier record has been added.
Left click on okay.
This concludes the tutorial for how to add an
SMTP carrier into NotePager Pro.
