I have a Meridian Mail 12.11.3 on an Option 61. I am having a problem getting it to leave a message to an Arch numeric pager. I can get it to dial the pager number, but the callback number is not being sent. I've tried changing all the timers in the Tools RN area, but nothing seems to make a difference. And, yes, I have the Data Terminator digit set to E in the Outcalling Administration. If I set the RN to dial a phone (off site), leaving the setting as a numeric pager, the number is dialed and after a pause the callback digits are sent.

I have been monitoring a dedicated analog trunk I set up for testing. The pager number is dialed, it answers, and sends a series of beeps. then after several seconds I hear fast busy and it disconnects. I've tried setting the various timeouts to their minimums, maximums and various settings in between, but nothing seems to make a difference. It's like the MM hears the beeps and doesn't know what to do.

I also tried programming another system the same way and got the same results.

I have a Call Pilot set up to dial the same system, and it works fine. Is there something odd with the Arch paging that MM dosen't like?

Thanks, in advance.
