Well, if you don't know, there probably isn't one!
OK, anyone who comes across this later: $100 bounty for a program (either
add-in or external) that meets these specs:
1. Every night, at a set time, notify my of any Outlook appointments
tomorrow
2. No notification if there are no appointments
3. Preferred notification: Pop-up window (must show up even when Outlook is
not in front)
4. Alternate notification: Send an e-mail to me
4a. If notification is by e-mail, it must use pure SMTP. It cannot rely on
MAPI, and it cannot rely on having an e-mail account configured in Outlook
4b. My mail server requires ESMTP AUTH. If that's hugely difficult I may
be able to configure a way around that.
5. Either way, the program must not rely on MAPI to communicate with
Outlook, because, let's face it, that just never ever works when Outlook's
not your e-mail program
6. Runs on Windows XP SP2, Outlook 2007 SP1
7. Deals with any redemption-library issues if that's still relevant today
8. Licensed with an OSSI-approved license so we can give back to the
community (I will do the work of setting up a public repository)
9. Doesn't rely on clever keyboard-macro tricks that will break/lose focus
if I'm in the middle of something else
