Anyone know of a way to create broadcast alerts within
Sharepoint 2003 to everyone or a specific group?

You can probably do it programmatically, but why not just use news that will
appear in the news for you webpart ?

I have the same question because I wan't to send a brodcast message
with a site outage. Why? because my users will never check the outage
calander that I set up and are not capable of setting up thier own
alerts.

How to create "Team" Outlook Integration in WSS

We have a client who wants to be able to have the ability to send and
receive "team" emails in WSS and reply. The idea is replace a team
distribution list and make key email traffic visible in a collaborative
sense. I would guess that a link to an Exchange Server would be logical.
We remembered seeing a web part like this on MSD2D but it appears that
CorasWorks bought the company and is selling the web part for $3000 per
server.

Is there another, less expensive solution available or that can be
assembled ??

Thanks,

Scott

For each WSS Sites, why don't you create a group (mail enabled group
account). So when users reply or get notifications, etc it replies to
the group they are in.


Example

- Setup the mail enabled group account
- Get everyone you want in that group
- When people get notified for whatever reason in that WSS site, they
can also reply - poor man's method

Thanks for the suggestion but we are hoping that someone has developed or
is developing - for sale, but not $3,000 - an elegant solution for
Outlook. It seems a natural requirement in a "Team Collaboration" site
to have team based email "visible". You know like TO: The Project Team,
and FROM: the Project Team.

We have discovered an interesting Outlook Vie Control from wssdemo.com

Jan Tielens has created a web part that allows you to set-up alerts for
other users and groups.
Check it out here:

It's very useful.
