Chapter 6: Notifying Users 135
e. In the Notify After field, type the number of minutes Amanda
should wait before performing this notification record after the
reason for notification (for example, the arrival of a message)
occurs.
For example, if the user usually checks his messages every hour,
you can tell Amanda to notify him about messages an hour after
they arrive. Then the notification occurs only if he fails to check for
them himself.
f. In the Continue Every field, type the number of minutes Aman-
da should wait between notification attempts.
For example, you might notify the user every 15 minutes after the
first notification until he finally gets the message.
g. In the Max Times field, type the number of times Amanda
should perform this notification.
For example, you might stop notification after 10 attempts. A zero
means unlimited notification attempts, but The Amanda Company
does not recommend using zero as a setting for this field.
h. In the Title field, type a brief description of what this notifica-
tion does (for example, Pager, Message Light On, or Home
Number). It is best to use a unique description.
i. In the Type field, press F2; then use Up Arrow and Down Ar-
row to select a type of notification:
NORMAL Indicates that the user has new messages. Normal
notification templates turn on message lights, page
users, call them at home, and so forth. (Normal notifi-
cation records handle both urgent and non-urgent
messages—unless you define an urgent notification
record.)
RELAY Pages the user and relays a telephone number that has
been input by the caller.
If a caller presses the # sign while listening to the
mailbox’s greeting, Amanda asks for a telephone
number and saves it in the %R token. To relay the
number, the %R or P(R) token must appear in the
Method field of the notification record.
