The PHONENUMBER string can contain valid DTMF keys (the digits 0 through 9,
#, and *) and commas.
Commas represent modem-specific delays, typically one second each. If the
modem must dial an 8 or 9 to access an outside line, you may need to insert a
comma or two after that number to allow enough time for accessing the line.
Also, different paging service providers may require more or less delay to
complete a call or process a PIN code. Therefore, you must adjust the number
of commas properly for each pager entry. This may be a trial-and-error
process. See

Email Notification Setup
You can have the ReadiVoice system send alarm notifications to designated
email addresses, either instead of or in addition to telephone numbers.
Assuming that your Sun is set up properly for UNIX mail, you can send mail
email addresses, either instead of or in addition to telephone numbers.
Assuming that your Sun is set up properly for UNIX mail, you can send mail
to any known user (such as root) on your network. To send an email
elsewhere (such as an Internet email address), your network must have an
SMTP server with Internet access. Contact your network specialist about
configuring your network for email notification.
