looking at this demo:


http://www.viddler.com/explore/k2onk2/videos/6/


they mention that someone can reply to an email from their blackberry with the word approved in the body, and the task will complete.


Can anyone tell me where I find this feature, and how I configure it - I have never been aware that this could be done, and would like to investigate this further.


Thanks in advance...

This feature isn't currently an out of the box feature of K2 blackpearl.  The demo you were speaking of used custom code both within the K2 process as well as a Windows service that montiors a mailbox looking for the responses.  I've used a similar approach to build this capaiblity of blackberry/iphone email task approvals for one of my customers which is being used succesfully in production.


With that said I believe this or similar functionality is on the roadmap to be included in a future update to blackpearl.


Regards,


Tim
