We have some service techs who only use their email on smart phones.  So they 
do don't receive any notificatiion that their passwords are about to expire.  
Do you have any suggestions as to ways to best manage this?
We have considered
*       setting their accounts to have passwords never expire
*       to set their accounts so that we send an email out 10 days prior and 
they have to log on somewhere using OWA,
*       we have looked at whether there is a URL to send to my mobile users so 
they can reset their email passwords before they expire using a version of this 
page that's optimized for a mobile screen.  Is there such a version?


Currently we came up with this plan but I am sure there are better ideas out 
there:

1.      Send out an email with a temporary password and instructions for 
changing password, to be used the next day.
2.      Overnight, manually reset each user's password to standard issue 
password
3.      Next day, user will have to open yesterday's email and click on a link 
to take them into a page where they can reset their password.  (They will have 
to create a new password at this point, and remember it.)
4.      They will then have to open their Android email application, go to 
Settings, and enter their new password.
5.      In six months, send them an automated email prompting them to reset 
their password.
6.      User will have to remember their expiring password (which they haven't 
used in six months) before they can enter a new password.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Alice
