Microsoft Outlook/Exchange

Microsoft Exchange and Outlook are key components of the Microsoft 365 service, providing solutions for managing emails, calendars, and contacts. Outlook is the application you use to send and receive emails. In addition to emails, it also allows you to manage your calendar, contacts, and tasks. Exchange is the server that manages your emails, calendars, and contacts. It acts like a post office, ensuring that all your emails are delivered correctly and on time. It also synchronizes data between different devices, so you always have up-to-date information, whether you are using a computer, tablet, or mobile phone.

Features of Microsoft Outlook and Exchange

• Email Communication - allows sending and receiving emails with advanced features such as spam filtering, automatic replies, and folder management.
• Calendar - allows scheduling meetings, events, and tracking deadlines. The calendar can be shared with other users for better coordination.
• Contacts - allows managing contacts and contact groups, making it easier to communicate with colleagues and students.
• Tasks - allows creating and tracking tasks and projects, helping with organizing work and study.

Outlook on the Web

Outlook on the Web (formerly known as Outlook Web App - OWA) is the web version of the Outlook application. It allows you to access your emails, calendar, and contacts directly from a web browser without having to install any software. Just log in to Outlook on the Web using your school email address and password to the AMU network.
