Using Outlook Web Access

                                                

Along the left side of the screen will be an area with icons or folders. This is the area where you can navigate to your Inbox, Calendar, Contacts, etc.

You can go to your Inbox, Calendar, Contacts, Options, or Log Off just by clicking on the appropriate icon.

Note that if there is a plus sign in front of an item there are subfolders for that item.

You can create folders under other folders. To make a subfolder, click on the Inbox to highlight it, then right click (a dialog box will pop up) and left click on “New Folder."

Options: A feature new to this version of Outlook Web Access is the ability to control some of the aspects of OWA. In the left hand pane click on the Options tab at the bottom of the list. The Options View will open. In it you will be able to choose color schemes, set Calendar options, set time & day formats, Contact options, etc. If you change anything make sure to click on the Save and Close button at the top.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sending an Email

If you are in the Inbox or any subfolder beneath it, all you have to do to create a new email is click on the New button just above your name. Next to the New button is a down arrow where you have a choice of either a new Message (email), Appointment (Calendar), Contact (Address book), Distribution List (for sending email to a specific group of people – use this only if you will be repeatedly sending email to the same group of individuals, like a committee or study group you are a member of), or a new folder.

 

 

 

 

When you click on the New button an email window will open. It will look like this.

 

 

 

Type in the email address of the person you are sending the email to, a subject (which you should always do), and then the message. When you are finished click on the Send icon in the upper left hand corner and away it goes!
