In this season of giving, here’s an add on to Outlook that prevents too much giving—it’s a module you can download from Microsoft that blocks Reply All.
Now, this is not a full solution, because it only works for people on your same Exchange system, meaning users in the same company; but that’s still a big plus.
Here’s the main way it works. When you are ready to send a message, you can mark it so that recipients cannot Reply All to that message. It also goes beyond that. You can also set it so -all- outgoing messages automatically have that setting enabled, or to prevent Reply All for all messages you receive. As the article in the link below humorously suggests, maybe you would like to sneak onto the computers of certain people in your company and make that setting?
Here’s the Cnet link with all the details:

Hi Michael, Im reading your book right now.
Do you av time to review the “gSyncit” pluging for outlook 2007/2010? It syncronize Outlook and Toodledo 1 way and 2 ways.
I use both, but I miss a sync between Toodledo and outlook.

Thanks Pablo,
I am aware of the product but since it’s not a server-based solution that completely syncs Exchange and ToodleDo tasks both ways, I am not putting it out there as a recommended solution yet. But if it is working for you, great! I am still hoping for a server to server Exchange/Outlook sync.
Best, Michael
@ Pablo
Thank you to share. It seems interesting.
How it works to sync Toodledo & Outlook?
I think this tool is more than interesting because you can sync toodledo, outlook and google together. In my case, I left behind Outlook for the troubles to sync I had, so I’m working with MYN only in Toodledo and Ultimate To Do List. I could appreciate to use the tasks in the same window of outlook to optimize my times, thanka to this sync tool. I can see now the opportunity to use again outlook to update my system. However, I can understand Michael, you are looking for a server solution. Is there any chance to get one, on the short term? Could this tool be helpful to connect all this important tools? Does anyone, around here, use it successfully with this scope?

I tried Gsyncit but I couldn’t easily sync outlook, toodledo and Google contacts due to the different languages. Toodledo is in english while the two others are in my natural language, so I lost some strategic field like the start date.
