Airnote Internet Gateway
Wireless E-Mail


Wireless Services Corporation is pleased to announce several exciting NEW AirNote Features specifically developed for our 2 Way Users.

2 Way AirNote Acknowledgments

AirNote acknowledgments will not be sent until the Skytel network has confirmed that the message was received on the 2 way device.

New AirNote 2 Way Commands

These new AirNote commands are available to Skytel 2-Way Subscribers using the Skytel SkyWriter or Page Writer 2000 device. These commands are prefixed with a colon ":" to differentiate them from a message or reply starting with the same words.

The first two commands below (:All and :More) will appear as a reply option on your AirNote messages. The remaining four are available to AirNote customers by creating a custom reply.

Your reply choices can be one of the following:

  1. :All - System appended reply. This will request that most of the message be sent to the pager. The upper limit is 3950 characters. The message will be broken into the appropriate number of 500 character blocks. This response will break between pages on a word boundary. This feature is not available if your Keep Days are set to 0.
  2. :More - System appended reply. This will request the next block of the current message. It could appear with a single digit appended to indicate which page you are currently on. The next 495 characters of the message will be sent to your pager. This option does not break on word boundaries. This feature is not available if your Keep Days are set to 0.
  3. :Email - Subscriber must enter as custom reply. This will email the entire current message to your list of current forwards. It will override your delivery schedules. There is no acknowledgment provided. This feature is not available if your Keep Days are set to 0.
  4. :Email user@domain.com - Subscriber must enter as custom reply. This will email the entire current message to the name specified. To be detected, the name MUST contain the '@'. There is no acknowledgment provided. This feature is not available if your Keep Days are set to 0.
  5. :Fax - Subscriber must enter as custom reply. This will send a Fax to the fax number that is in your profile. This requires that the fax feature be active for your account and the fax number is a toll free number. There is no acknowledgment provided. This feature is not available if your Keep Days are set to 0.
  6. :Fax 8885551212 - Subscriber must enter as custom reply. Fax to the fax number that has been entered. This requires that the fax feature be active for your account and the fax number is a toll free number. Please do not include any spaces or dashes (important) in the phone number. A 10 digit number IS required. There is no acknowledgment provided. This feature is not available if your Keep Days are set to 0.

Note with features 3 - 6: These features can be slightly confused by the reply tag that the pager automatically appends to a message. If you notice any difficulties, please email support@AirNote.net and let us know when the message was sent so that we can identify and correct the problem.

New Configuration Features:

The system will accept the following messages as a reply to any AirNote message. The AirNote profile that will be modified will be determined by the PIN of the sending pager.

  1. :Help - Send a list of valid replies that you can use to change your configuration and remind you what is available.
  2. :Stop - Stop messages from being sent to the pager. This puts in a temporary delivery schedule that instructs the system to Ignore all pages.
  3. :Start - Delete the temporary delivery schedule created by a :Stop. (resume normal delivery)
  4. :TimeZone P - Set your current time zone to be Pacific. Additional letters are (E)astern, (C)entral and (M)ountain.
  5. :Hot user@domain.com - Add the name to your hot list. Asterisks will work as if you had entered them from the web site.
  6. :Junk user@domain.com - Add the name to your junk list. Asterisks will work as if you had entered them from the web site.
  7. :Drop user@domain.com - Drop a name from either the Hot or Junk lists. The name must be entered EXACTLY as it appears in your filter list for the name to be deleted.
