SharePoint and Outlook integration tool


Trinity Expert Systems has released a free utility that allows seamless integration between Microsoft Outlook and SharePoint Portal Server.

When installed, the tool forms an integral part of Outlook, and allows an easy 'drag and drop' action to copy or move specific emails into document libraries within a SharePoint intranet. The uploader tool provides quick and easy access to the relevant SharePoint document library.

It allows emails to be uploaded to SharePoint while offline, storing them in a queue until the user goes online. This feature means remote workers can quickly share information contained within emails across the organisation.

      Does it apply to Windows SharePoint Services? I am looking for an integration tool between Outlook and WSS.

    Thanks for the tips!

      In reply to Rachel, the version of the upload tool on our website does require Portal Server, as we use SPS search for some of the functionality (e.g. the search :), and for finding team sites you have access to).

    However it would be pretty easy to do a cut down version for use with just WSS, drop us a mail with your needs and maybe we can come up with something.

    Cheers
