Paul. I created a shortened URL to a SharePoint page, tested it, then emailed to check from work. "Page not found," I believe the error was. When I got home, the link no longer worked.

Just re-did a new shortened URL, and that works fine. Will test from work again tomorrow.

Is there any reason a link would cease to be effective?

I want to thank you for this wonderful solution. 'Solution', indeed, as I work for an organization that insists both on text-only email (no wrapping) and also access by Blackberry, both nightmare conditions for supporting a SharePoint site.

Have successfully configured my own site, and will soon attempt the organization farm. Thanks from all of us...

Thanks for the heads up on the typo — I’ll get it corrected.

Thanks for releasing this tool. I’m one of, what I’m sure is a long list of people, that has been waiting for this and I’m looking forward to trying it out.

FYI, there is a typo in your install document.
