The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Exchange Automation on a Domain Level

Asked by PhoenixTechnology in Exchange Email Server, SBS Small Business Server

Tags: Microsoft, Exchange, 2003, for SBS 2003

Hi Guys,
     I am totally stumped.  I have a client that we provide IT support and he has switched from using a Database Management program to exchange 2003 by way of SBS 2003.  A friend of his told him that all that he needed was in exchange and outlook, so far I have been able to live up to this friends statement.  Here is my issue:

1) we need to make "task groups" so that he can simply take that group of tasks and assign it to a user.
2) automatically have emails not marked as private sent to a master account that they are going to use as a company wide contact database when the user first inputs that contact into their contact list
3) anything changed in the personal contact list to a contact added to the company-wide contact database automatically updated and specify somehow that this contact belongs to the "owner" of the original contact within the company wide contacts list (maybe make a catagory for each user?) but it must be searchable or able to "sort-by"
4) anytime things are changed in this database whether on the master contacts list or the users personal list they must sync up and match in both locations.

-here is the kicker... he already stopped using CRM software because he hates it, and does not want to use something like top producer 8i or ACT!.   I am at a loss so any step in the right direction would be helpful.
