YOu have a e-mail pager, BB cannot differentiate between
and regular mail and e-pager.  You'll have to
prefix the e-pager address with a tag such that it
does not fall into the e-mail code.

You'll have to duplicate the e-mail code or put
some check in the e-mail case statement in bb-page1.sh
such that it'll recognizes the pager@test.com address
as an e-pager not regular mail...

This will require you to get your hands dirty and
hack the code for now.

Do you have a beta of BB ? Anyway that error
should disappear in 1.2
