Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express, Release 2.x -- Configuring Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express User Profile Preferences for Notifications
From DocWiki
When Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express is integrated with Microsoft Outlook, you can configure the user profile field called E-mail type to determine which type of notification is sent to each user.
For meetings that are scheduled from the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express End-User Interface, notifications may be sent as either of the following:
- SMTP e-mail notification from the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express server
- Microsoft Outlook notification from the Microsoft Exchange Server
For meetings that are scheduled from the Microsoft Outlook calendar:
- Invitees always receive Microsoft Outlook notifications.
- Microsoft Outlook sends a single notification to all invitees in the Language specified in the meeting scheduler's Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express user profile.
Both SMTP e-mail and Microsoft Outlook notifications use the e-mail notification templates in Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express and provide relevant meeting information and click-to-attend links. Microsoft Outlook notifications provide the following additional benefits:
- Microsoft Outlook notifications can immediately update each invitee's Microsoft Outlook calendar.
- The meeting scheduler receives Microsoft Outlook replies that indicate which attendees accepted or declined the invitation.
