I come from a Domino background and one the nice things about it I can create a script that runs when a new email arrives in a mailbox and do a specific task..
Can something like that be done with a Exchange / Outlook environment?
Example:
a email comes in to a mailbox.
a script is set to trigger when new mail is in that inbox.
-script checks for particular string in the subject field.
-script reacts to certain text in the body of the message.
- script does it's task, and sends the response back to the original sender.
One real world example would be a sales manager getting all members of a particular group (RSM in particular - remote and company based) and verifying and using the list entries.
This way I am not required to deal with this and it's a automated process.
