Outlook Web Access

With Microsoft Office Outlook Web Access, you can use a Web browser to access your Microsoft Exchange mailbox from any computer with an Internet connection.

In fact, you can do many of the same things you can do with Outlook or Evolution, such as read and send messages, organize contacts, create tasks and rules, schedule appointments, and access public folders.

You can use Outlook Web Access with many different types of web browsers from UNIX, Apple Mac, or Microsoft Windows computers. However, the complete set of features of Outlook Web Access is only available with Internet Explorer 6+ on MS Windows.
