The SERVICE, COLOR, TIME and EXPAGE should go on one line.

The SERIVCE is a typo, but enough to throw the config-parser off track.

If you just want to avoid pages for hosts on the "hscs_servers",
"special" and "telemed" pages, you can just look for those words without
caring about where they appear in the page-path. Unless you use
"anchors" - the ^ and $ signs - in the regexp, it will match anywhere in
the page-path string.

So I think this does what you want:

SERVICE=conn COLOR=red TIME=W:0750:1710 EXPAGE=%hscs_servers|special|telemed
	MAIL ees2y (at) pagehost.virginia.edu REPEAT=1 FORMAT=SMS
