Buy and setup an exchange server and its cake from there.

Other than that you'll have to look into some other options for notification. I'm currently in a Domino/Notes environment and we just write every thing out to the Windows Event log. Then we have a log scanner which is constanly monitoring the logs for certian key words. If one is found it sends an email, page, or both to the appropriate people. Microsoft recently release the Microsoft Outlook 2002 Connector which I think may help in my situation because it will allow me to setup a MAPI profile for a Lotus Notes mail account. I haven't had a chance to test it yet so I'm not sure if it will work or not. You may want to do a little looking around to see if there are any such products available for Groupwise.

I'm not familiar with groupwise, but if it can be setup as a POP3 internet mail server, then you can use SQLMail. Jeff is right though, it is much easier if you use Exchange.

what about pointing the outlook 2k client at the groupwise backend? I think this is a Novell supported config (atleast it was w/groupwise 5.5)
