15 January, 2004 - TeleMessage, the leading provider of Universal Messaging Services, announces that it has joined the Microsoft Office Marketplace. TeleMessage will list its TeleMessage e-mail plug-in within the Office Marketplace. The Microsoft Office Marketplace is a site that lists products and services that can be used with Microsoft Office. On this site, Office users can find a directory of tools, services, smart tags, and add-ins offered by external providers that allow them to do more with Office. The Office Marketplace is part of Microsoft Office Online, the redesigned Office Web site that serves as the online companion to the Microsoft Office System.
The TeleMessage e-mail plug-in has two major functions. First, it allows users to send email to anyone on any device directly from Microsoft Outlook. Send email to a phone, fax, or pager, or send SMS text messages to a wireless phone. You can compose one message and send it to many people, all on different devices, saving you hours of time and enhancing communication and collaboration abilities.
The second function improves your mobility by letting you receive important filtered e-mail notifications and meeting reminders on your wireless phone as SMS text messages or voice messages. You can even reply to the e-mail using your own voice.
