From: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/itsolutions/msit/deploy/ex03atwp.mspx <http://www.microsoft.com/technet/itsolutions/msit/deploy/ex03atwp.mspx> Basically, you could still use OMM if you have it, but it's no longer needed, supported, or desired. See below. Up-To-Date Notifications Exchange 2003 introduces a new feature within EAS called up-to-date notifications. In the past, the push notifications featured in MIS used the Short Messaging Service (SMS) of a wireless carrier for sending text messages consisting of the first 160 characters of a redirected e-mail. Since SMS used non-encrypted text to transmit its messages, the security of message content was a major concern. Instead of transmitting the first 160 characters of the actual message, up-to-date notifications transmits only a binary command to the mobile device that causes it to start securely synchronizing e-mail over the SSL-protected EAS link. This way, the binary command never contains any portion of the message body yet the user still receives the latest e-mail. To reduce the amount of traffic a device might receive for a user who regularly receives large quantities of e-mail, Windows Mobile 2003 devices offer the user the option to either specify time ranges during the day called Peak Time in which the synchronization only occurs at specified intervals or synchronize continuously at all times. During Off Peak Time, however, the mobile device is synchronized by up-to-date notifications every time a message arrives. Support for up-to-date notifications requires the use of Windows Mobile 2003 devices such as Pocket PC Phone Edition devices or Smartphones. _____ From: Harding, Devon [mailto:dharding@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, April 16, 2004 1:36 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: Exchange 2003 OMA SMS text message? http://www.MSExchange.org/ I just want to have appointment notifications sent to my cell phone via SMS text (e.g. sent to 1234567@xxxxxxxxxxxx). How could I enable this feature? -Devon _____ From: Mulnick, Al [mailto:Al.Mulnick@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, April 16, 2004 11:53 AM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: Exchange 2003 OMA SMS text message? http://www.MSExchange.org/ IIRC, that feature wasn't pushed forward in favor of ActiveSync. Althought the product has been discontinued, there is no need for it with new products and it's client-side which means it tends to be left on. Using ActiveSync you can push the data out as well as synch remotely. Is this not what you were looking for?

Since OMM is now discontinued, how do I enable that same feature in Exchange 2003?
