Outlook Web Access, I think ... the web-based client for Exchange.

 I just can't seem to rime email and some web app from M$ to be being
 called 'pretty nifty'.

It's only necessary to separate logic and emotion, and it works.

I don't consider any form of web access to e-mail to be nifty, but some
people prefer it.

 On Lotus, yet another example: Lotus notes users replying to me. Ok,
 here's my answer in red (or whatever color they like, DUH ...) [Hey
 stupid, ever heard of _plain text_ ??? (or using an attachment)]

That's a problem with a great many correspondents, not just those using
Notes.  I try to explain to my correspondents that plain text is always
best.

You can still use IMAP to connect to your Exchange server - over the LAN it
works pretty smooth, though you have to take care of some specialities like
local vs. server-side sent mail folder, that sort of thing...

Outlook Web Access.

 I just can't seem to rime email and some web app from M$ to be being

Problem is: it is not a plain web application, it requires Internet
Explorer... there you go.

Funny thing is that many gateways convert that Lotus Mail stuff to plain
text... you think it looks horrible with the colors... nada, the plain text
converted version is even worse. :-)

Sidenote - to use IMAP (or POP3) to connect to the Exchange server you have
to butter up your Exchange admin to enable it on the server... :-)

TB and MS Exchange 2003

2005-03-18 Thread Leif Gregory
Hello tbudl,

  I'll be getting ready to play around with using TB to connect to MS
  Exchange 2003 in a few weeks (once they get their server built).

  Anyone played with this functionality yet? Any tips or trick or
  pitfalls?

  Thanks.

I only worked a little bit with IMAP. Using MAPI was totally horrible, TB
would re-sync its folders every time I started another fetch/receive
cycle... not funny with my Exchange mailbox at work that contains thousands
of messages.

Don't get me wrong. OWA is pretty nifty for a web app, but it doesn't
