Hello:

On my website I have a (e-mail address removed) link where we get many of our
sales inquiry leads. On my office I have two salespeople checking this
inbox. My problem is, they have trouble distributing the leads fairly
between themselves. Would anyone know how I can set up the system such
that half of the leads go to one of them and the other half go to the
other, automatically? An even more wonderful setup is one that can
handle /three or more/ salespeople. Any ideas?

Regards,
mensan

This would best be done during the sending process. Your web site would
change the mailbox "sales" point to after each use.

Thanks, Brian, for the reply.

If it were a contact form webpage with a <Send> button, life would be
easy. What we have is a "mailto:" link. We get five or eight emails
to (e-mail address removed) a day -- this email address is also on our print
ads, directory listings and flyers. We would like the system to sort
the message as it arrives and forward it fairly to one of the sales
reps.

I don't see how unmodified Outlook could do that. Perhaps if you have
control over the server where the mailbox resides it could be done by the
receiver on the server, which would round-robin the actual mailbox into
which the message gets deposited.
