is it possible to download email from Outlook Web access into Out.

[John O]

I can access work related email through browser in Outlook Web Access. I
would like to download that email onto my laptop in order to benefit from the
resourses available through Outlook 2003. Is it possible? Short of that--is
it possible to upload my Contacts/Calendar in Outlook into Outlook Web Access?

yes, you can your email by setting up OWA as an HTTP account. It's not a
supported configuration, but it does seem to work OK.

 

[John O]

Thank You, Sue. Now to show my continued ignorance, can you give me a link
that tell me how to set that up, or directions on how to do that?

It's not documented, since it's unsupported. Just add an HTTP mail account
in Toolls | Email Accounts and for the service provider, choose Other. The
Server URL would be your OWA URL. Try using domain\alias as the user name.
