Hi Andy: All what you ask can probably be done through Exchange... it can be totally programmed. Even Outlook has a lot of re-direction rules that can be added. I do not see what your problem is... I am obviously missing something.

My app here generates lots of emails, interfacing with Outlook/Exchange. We also have other equipment generating emails (eg UPS, plant machinery). What I want to do now is trigger receipt of certain emails to generate text messages to mobiles. There seem to be lots of Outlook add-ins which sort of do what I want but I can't see one immediately that's an exact fit. Ideally we'd like it be Outlook-rule-based, so we can use Outlook's rules to say, for example, any email from that source with that in the subject send it on to xyz, where xyz would be an entry in the Address Book with a mobile number, and have some software which recognises that that has to go as a text message and sends it appropriately. So an add-in which allows you just to type a text message, address it and send it is no use because in the situations we want to use this it must be automated. Anyone any experience/recommendations? -- Andy Lacey http://www.minstersystems.co.uk ________________________________________________ Message sent using UebiMiau 2.7.2 -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
