Exchange Project - Why Move to a new System? |
|
|
|
Exchange offers some significant improvements and advantages over the current system and provides a number of key features
that have been requested by the user community. These include:
- A more robust, full featured WebMail interface which more closely matches the appearance and capability of desktop mail/calendaring
applications.
- Integrated calendaring and scheduling capabilities for all users. This solution will provide a calendaring solution for all
account holders, including students.
- Enhanced support for accessing email and calendar events from mobile devices (i.e.,cell phones).
- The ability to directly review quarantined messages suspected as SPAM.
- User controlled ability to restore deleted email messages.
|
Microsoft Exchange is a server-based messaging system which provides access to electronic mail, shared calendaring and scheduling,
and other collaborative services. It is the central repository where users messages and calendar events are stored and managed, and allows users to access
their messages and data using desktop clients (such as Outlook or Entourage), a web-based interface (Outlook Web Access),
or via mobile devices running which support the Windows Mobile 6 platform.
