Easiest way to send SMS text from Exchange / Outlook

[pdV6]

Does anybody have any experience of doing this kind of thing?

When an appointment/meeting is scheduled in Exchange, is there a way to get the server to generate text message reminders to all the invitees at a configurable time period before the scheduled time of the appointment?

Presumably it will involve some add-on software if Exchange can't do this kind of thing out of the box...

I guess that's a "no" then?

I'm not aware of a Server-side bolt-on... but there is an add-in for Outlook: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?Fa...

You might be able to script something using the Jeyo Mobile Extender or one of the internet SMS gateways.
