Microsoft Outlook
Microsoft Outlook is the primary electronic mail application for faculty and
staff. It is designed to operate as an independent personal information manager
(PIM), an Internet mail client, or in conjunction with the Microsoft Exchange
Server for group scheduling, email, and task management.
With Microsoft Outlook you can:
-
-
Send and receive email.
-
Keep a calendar of your appointments, events, and meetings.
-
Maintain information about the people and organizations with whom you are in
contact.
-
Directly access web pages from Outlook. Microsoft offers Outlook Web Access, to
those who use Exchange Server as an information store, but don't have Outlook.
With Outlook Web Access, you can use your web browser to gain secure access to
your email and calendar you maintain on the Exchange Server; you can also use
group scheduling and have access to public folders.
-
Keep track of your to-do lists.
-
Maintain a journal of your activities.
-
Save miscellaneous notes, documents, and files on the hard drive.
-
Share information by means of public folders, forms, and Internet connectivity.
Outlook juggles scheduling, groupware, personal information (contacts, tasks),
email, and documents all in one place, and allows you to create and view
information using a consistent interface. Outlook lets you arrange information
any way you want to see it. You can apply any of Outlook's standard five views
to information, or you can customize a view using the Field Chooser and Group
by Box features. Windows CE Pocket Outlook, which runs on Windows CE - based
handheld computers, is yet another member of the Outlook family. You can
synchronize Outlook data between a handheld computer running Pocket Outlook and
a desktop and laptop computer running Outlook. You may synchronize your Outlook
data with a Palm OS PDA, also. Finally, Microsoft Outlook will run on both
Intel and Apple based computers.

-

To: Box should read WCU. THIS IS THE DOMAIN!
-
One the computer successfully authenticates against Active Directory it passes
those credentials (username, password) to NetWare and it tries to authenticate
there.
-
If authentication fails at this point, it will bring up an additional password
login message box.
