perhaps as an exercise .. do you have "Page Sysop" configured on any of your menus?

you could change it to do something like:

GP - Page Sysop For Chat
!C - Create Semaphore File

and attempt to make the events system send you emails after a user tries to page you.

or perhaps create a sysop command for the message menu that creates the semaphore for triggering (so in this case "forcing") a message poll.
