Webmail for Faculty and Staff/Exchange 2007
We are in the process of moving faculty and staff accounts to our new Exchange 2007 mail server. Once this process is complete you can expect some changes to the Webmail login screen to accommodate the two different systems that we are using.
What to expect:
- Webmail users: webmail will be moved to a new server, and until the entire campus moves to Exchange 2007, we will need to go to a different address. To access webmail go to: https://tyler.cortland.edu/owa/ (There is a link on the webmail screen for Exchange 2007 users)
Mac Users: Entourage will bring up an error when opening. Simply click OK.
Outlook users: Outlook should automatically detect and reconfigure itself to the new server; no action need be taken on your part.
If you encounter problems with your mailbox size please see the instructions in TechInfo:

There are many new features, most notably:
Outlook Web Access (Webmail): The latest OWA client is a near-perfect clone of the Outlook 2003 desktop interface. Features and views are nearly the same, and performance is excellent.
Smart scheduling: The addition of Scheduling Assistant and Calendar Attendant mean that Exchange tracks not only the schedules of all meeting invitees but also the availability of meeting rooms and can manage all of this on the server, so meetings can be fully scheduled without everyone’s Outlook client being connected.
Improved search: A rewritten search algorithm noticeably boosts the speed at which Outlook can find specific messages in large message stores.
If after the move you experience any issues, please contact the Technology Help Center at x2500.
Thank you.
