RE: Creating an automated Bulletin Board System HELP

2003-09-17 Thread Ron
THat is the direction I'd prefer to go.  However:

We are migrating from a mainframe mail system that has a Bulletin Board
feature.  They want me to duplicate the feature.

When you subscribe to their BB, you get any new messages to the BBs that
you subscribed to.

I'm trying to figure out how I can manipulate exchange and or outlook
(through forms) to interact with Active Directory.

I envision this:

A user opens a subscription form.  They choose the BB they want to
subscribe to and enter their username.
The form adds that username to a distribution list.
That distribution list is set as the Forward recipient for that BB (Public
Folder)

When someone posts to the BB, everyone in the Dist list gets a copy.

Sound OK?

It's called a newsgroup and Outlook Express works great for accessing them.

 I need to create an automated bulletin board system using 
 Exchange 2000 and Outlook 2000.  It needs to be fairly 
 automated with people being able to subscribe and 
 unsubscribe.  ANY direction would be appreciated.
 
 Thank you

Well I don't know about using Exchange 2K and Outlook 2K but you're
trying to create a bulletin board right? Take a look at Invision Power
Board:
http://www.invisionboard.com/

It's one of the best boards out there, best of all, unlike vBulletin
it's free.
