Hi,
While unemployed I used my gmail account more and installed a free plug-in called boomerang. It provided a function that tracked an email I sent and looked for a reply from the recipient. You could pick from hours to days... based on various criteria like "if no reply". Boomerang would then bring a reminder to your inbox. This was really simple and worked well for me as you can do it right in the message you were sending.
I have gotten used to that functionality and miss it now that I am back in an outlook world. Here are my questions -
1. Is there a way to get this functionality in outlook somehow?
2. Is there a third party plug in that provides this functionality? The same company offers boomerang for Outlook but it has a severely limited features set compared to the gmail version and is also $29....
Thanks in advance to any/all help. I am on outlook 2010 PC.
