I am looking for an add in that requires receipiants to REPLY ALL to
the emails I send them. Or at least a popup box to remind them they
should reply all. Many people have their outlook set to view the
message and instead of opening it up, they just hit REPLY and don't
look if others were included in the email.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

It can't be done automatically. I suggest your "signature" line request them
to REPLY ALL.
 
You can use VBA to watch mail for multiple addresses in the To field and
suggest they reply to all. See outlookcode.com for samples. Some addins
exist, but the ones I tried asked if I really wanted to reply to all.... it
didn't ask if I wanted to reply to all. Some are listed at
http://www.slipstick.com/addins/mail.htm.

Naturally, these solutions work best if you are in a network and can use
logon scripts to push the addin or code to the desktops. You can't force
people outside your company to reply to all - for those, ask at the top of
the email that they please use reply to all.
