I think Lotus Notes (now Domino on the server, but stilled called the
Notes Client on the PC) had that before Exchange ever did.

IIRC, the Microsoft Mail server was a pretty basic MTA, and then MS
bought Schedule+ from some other company, and kludged it onto their mail
server to make the first version of Exchange. All of this because they
were trying to compete with Lotus Notes :-)
