My private company that has people on call just has an email address [alert@company.com](mailto:alert@company.com) with all the individual numbers in it. The email can only be reached by certain users so not anyone can sent out a message but when you send an email from my email to [alert@company.com](mailto:alert@company.com), it sends it to everyone on the list. ---
