Give your company its own virtual Microsoft Exchange 2007 server,
accessible over the
Internet, using Outlook 2007 (which you can download from us) or any
number of other email clients including handheld devices.
-
See our competitive
pricing.
-
Anti-virus is included.
-
Anti-spam is included.
Free aliases - sales@ info@ etc:
At no additional charge, we can create Group Objects, such
as info@ sales@ projectteam@ etc, and give you the ability to easily add and remove
group members yourself through Outlook. One or more group members receive
incoming email for the address. Messages clearly indicate they were
addressed to the Group. Groups appear in your Global Address List and can
send mail as well as receive.
Wireless Access
Mobile devices incorporating Exchange ActiveSync maintain a secure
connection with Exchange Server 2007, receiving new or updated e-mail,
calendar, contacts, and tasks as soon as they arrive on the server.
Our Exchange implementation gives your group its own
Global Address List, which will include all the members of your team. This
allows you to share information between team members by, for example,
accessing other users calendars (if they give you permission). This means
the meeting planner works as designed in our hosted environment (unlike some
competitors highly automated environments) and allows you to see the
availability of other team members. It also means you can give other team
members permission to access any of your folders, such as your inbox and
contacts folders.
You have full "Owner" permissions on your public folders,
and you can create and delete as many folders as you wish in that hierarchy.
You can set the permissions yourself to give team members different levels
of access. In our hosted environment, public folders can even be
mail-enabled and appear in your Global Address List. Your group has a
generous allocation of storage space in the public folder hierarchy, based
on the number of mailboxes hosted (see
pricing page). What good is a document storage area if it only holds 25
MB of documents?
Groups, the global address list and full use of public
folders are just three of the things that make Exchange the collaboration
tool it is for team communication. Don't fall for some competitors low-ball
version of Exchange that disables these crucial features.
Optionally, we can give your Admin person or group full
permissions on your users mailboxes. This can be valuable for answering user
questions, testing and implementation. This is implemented only at your
request and at no additional charge.
Don't sign up for anything until you know it's going to work. Watching a
competitor's flash movie on your computer doesn't tell you anything about
how well the service will work for you, with your unique combination of
hardware, software, and network connectivity. Fill out
the form for access to a demo account. Try out the service for
free.
You can use Outlook 2007 or an older version of Outlook to access the Exchange server. All you need is a dial up Internet connection
(or better) to access
your mailbox and public folders from anywhere; home, office, or
on-the-road.
To help you configure Outlook to access Exchange server, we provide
step-by-step instructions for various
different versions of Windows and Outlook. Our screen shots make it as easy as possible.

Features of Exchange Server 2007
Review the features available with Exchange Server 2007.
Built-in Protection
Exchange Server 2007 includes built-in protection with features like
Edge Transport, Hosted Filtering Integration, and anti-spam filtering
and extensibility for antivirus protection. See the table below for more
information.
Anti-spam and Antivirus
|
Edge Transport server role
|
|
This server role is for perimeter network deployment. It
supports Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) routing, provides
anti-spam filtering technologies and support for antivirus
extensibility. The Edge Transport server should be isolated from
the Active Directory directory services, but can still leverage
Active Directory for recipient filtering by using Active
Directory Application Mode (ADAM). EdgeSync in Exchange Server
2007 publishes pertinent organization information, encrypted, to
the Edge Transport server for use in robust recipient filtering
and respects Microsoft Outlook safe sender lists on the Edge.
Communications between the Edge Transport server and the
internal network in an Exchange Server 2007 organization are
encrypted by default.
Edge Transport includes anti-spam technologies that protect
at many layers.
|
|
Anti-spam
|
Connection Filtering
|
Exchange Server 2007 provides an
integrated, IP based block-and-allow list based on sender
reputation. Lists are automatically updated as new versions
become available. Administrators can establish additional IP
allow-or-deny lists as needed.
|
|
Anti-spam
|
Sender and Recipient Filtering
|
Sender reputation is dynamically analyzed
and updated. When the Edge Transport server spots specific
trends from a given domain, it can impose certain actions to
either quarantine or reject incoming messages. Sender ID is also
used to verify that each e-mail message originates from the
Internet domain from which it claims to come from based on the
sender's SMTP server IP address. Once a Sender ID record has
been verified, the results can be cross-referenced to past
traffic patterns and sender reputation, creating an associate
weight into the domain reputation. Finally, recipients are
validated, and administrators have the ability to block messages
sent to non-existent user accounts or internal-only distribution
lists
|
|
Anti-spam
|
Safe Sender List Aggregation
|
Via EdgeSync, the Edge Transport server
respects Outlook 2003 and Outlook 2007 safe sender lists to help
reduce false positives.
|
|
Anti-spam
|
Sender ID
|
Exchange Server 2007 embeds support for
Sender ID, an e-mail industry initiative designed to verify that
each e-mail message originates from the Internet domain from
which it claims to come based on the sender's SMTP server IP
address. Sender ID helps prevent domain spoofing and protect
legitimate senders’ domain names and reputation and helps
recipients more effectively identify and filter junk e-mail and
phishing scams.
|
|
Anti-spam
|
Content Filtering
|
Content is analyzed using the Intelligent
Message Filter (IMF), Exchange Server's implementation of
Microsoft SmartScreen content filtering technology. SmartScreen
is based on Microsoft Research's patented machine-learning
technology. Anti-phishing capabilities are also built-in to the
IMF to help detect fraudulent links or spoofed domains and
protect users from these types of online scams. When used with
Outlook 2007, a phishing warning or block appears in the user
interface. Customers are protected from emerging spam attacks
through the automatic filter updates for Exchange Server 2007,
which are published on a frequent basis. Should the
administrator require additional control, the Edge Transport
server enables customization, including the ability to add words
or phrases to the filter.
|
|
Anti-spam
|
Outlook E-Mail Postmark
|
Exchange 2007 verifies Outlook E-mail
Postmarks attached to messages sent from Outlook 2007. The
Outlook E-mail Postmark can reduce false positives for messages
from legitimate senders that have little to no reputation.
|
|
Anti-spam
|
Spam Assessment
|
In addition to scanning message content,
the IMF consolidates guidance from Connection, Sender/Recipient,
Sender Reputation, Sender ID verification, and Outlook E-mail
Postmark validation to apply a Spam Confidence Level (SCL)
rating to a given message. Administrators can preconfigure
actions on the message based on this SCL rating. Actions may
include deliver to the inbox or junk mail folder, deliver to the
spam quarantine, or reject outright and no deliver.
|
|
Anti-spam
|
Service Resilience
|
The Edge Transport server role controls
the inbound SMTP message receipt rate for increased
availability. This control, coupled with the ability to detect
open proxy machines, can aid in preventing denial of service
attacks. Tar pitting is supported to slow the server response
for certain SMTP communication patterns, minimizing exposure to
directory harvest attacks.
|
|
Anti-spam
|
Anti-spam Stamp
|
Messages filtered by the Edge Transport
server role are stamped with information, including why the
message was considered spam and which combination of filters and
reputation services (IP, domain, sender, recipient, content)
determined its spam assessment. Administrators may use this
information in an aggregate way to understand the effectiveness
of filtering across their multilayered approach and tune
appropriately.
|
|
Anti-spam
|
Two-Tiered Spam Quarantine
|
The Exchange Server 2007 environment
enables two-tiered spam quarantine. First, administrators have
access to a Spam Quarantine housed in the perimeter network.
Using Outlook, administrators can access the Spam Quarantine to
search for messages, release to the recipient, or reject and
delete. Messages with borderline SCL ratings (borderline
definition configured by the administrator) may be released to
the end user's junk mail folder in Outlook, and are converted to
plain text for further protection.
|
|
Anti-spam
|
Consolidated Management
|
Management of the Edge Transport Server
role and corresponding rules is consistent with the rest of the
Exchange environment and can be performed using the Exchange
Management Console graphical interface or the Exchange
Management Shell for automation. Finally, the administrator can
leverage notifications through Microsoft Operations Manager
(MOM) or reports within Exchange to analyze the effectiveness of
their anti-spam filters.
|
|
Antivirus Extensibility
|
Attachment Filtering
|
To effectively protect against worms
delivered via e-mail, the administrator can strip attachments
based on their size, content or file type. Zip file manifests
can be examined as well for offending file types.
|
|
Antivirus Extensibility
|
Edge Protocol Rules
|
As a reactive defense mechanism, protocol
rules provide a layer of protection before antivirus signature
updates become available. Administrators can filter on known
text patterns in malware carriers and drop the connection.
|
|
Antivirus Extensibility
|
Antivirus Stamp
|
Messages scanned in the Exchange
environment can be assigned an antivirus stamp. This stamp
identifies which engine did the scanning, which signature was
used, and when the message was last scanned.
|
|
Antivirus Extensibility
|
Deep Integration for Antivirus Scanning
|
Antivirus solutions can be more tightly
integrated in the Exchange Server 2007 environment. Antivirus
solutions have access to the Multipurpose Internet Mail
Extensions (MIME) parsers and can scan the message stream in
transport (on Edge Transport or Hub Transport servers). Catching
viruses in transport helps prevent their delivery and storage in
Exchange mailboxes.
|
|
Hosted Filtering Integration
|
|
Exchange Server 2007 provides integration
with Exchange Hosted Services, offering off-site protection
against spam and viruses.
|
Confidential Messaging
|
Intra-Org Encryption
|
|
All mail traveling within an Exchange
Server 2007 organization is encrypted by default. Transport
Layer Security (TLS) is used for server-to-server traffic,
Remote Procedure Call (RPC) is used for Outlook connections, and
Secure Socket Layers (SSL) is used for Client Access traffic
(Outlook Web Access, Exchange ActiveSync, and Web Services).
This prevents spoofing and provides confidentiality messages in
transit.
|
|
SSL Certificates Automatically Installed
|
|
SSL certificates are installed by default
in Exchange Server 2007, enabling broad use of SSL and TLS
encryption from clients such as Outlook Web Access and other
SMTP servers.
|
|
Opportunistic TLS Encryption
|
|
If the destination SMTP server supports
TLS (via the “STARTTLS” SMTP command) when sending outbound
e-mail from Exchange Server 2007, Exchange Server will
automatically encrypt the outbound content using TLS. In
addition, inbound e-mail sent to Exchange Server 2007 from the
internet will be encrypted if the sending server supports TLS
(Exchange Server 2007 automatically installs SSL certificates).
|
Compliance
|
Transport Rules
|
|
Exchange Server 2007 includes a policy
engine based on rules that execute on Hub Transport servers.
With Transport Rules, administrators and compliance officers can
establish and enforce regulatory or corporate policies on
internal or outbound e-mail, voice mail, or fax. For example,
using a wizard in the Exchange Management Console or the command
line in Exchange Management Shell, rules can be written that
would prohibit communication between members of distinct
distribution lists, require encrypted delivery of any message
containing confidential information identified through text
pattern matching, append a disclaimer to any message being sent
externally, or BCC the compliance officer anytime a specific
phrase appears in the subject or content of a message.
|
|
Messaging Records Management
|
|
Various corporate retention policies exist
for e-mail, voice mail, and fax communications. With Managed
Folders, a user can organize messages into Outlook folders that
are provisioned and managed by the administrator. An automated
process scans the inbox and these folders to retain, expire, or
journal communications based on compliance requirements.
|
|
Flexible Journaling
|
|
Journaling is flexible in Exchange Server
2007. Journaling can be triggered per database, per distribution
list, or per user. All messages can be journaled, or just those
sent internally or externally. Transport rules may also dictate
when to journal based on message sender, recipient, or content.
|
|
Multi-Mailbox Search
|
|
Using the Microsoft standard search
technology, content in Exchange Server 2007 mailboxes is fully
indexed and searchable using a variety of criteria. If
compliance or legal requirements require information discovery,
administrators can search across multiple mailboxes within an
organization with a single query, routing the results to a
Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services site or mailbox that can
be made available via Outlook to HR, compliance officers, or
others.
|
|
Archive Integration
|
|
Journaled messages can be archived to any
SMTP address, including an Exchange mailbox or Windows
SharePoint Services site.
|
Business Continuity
|
Local Continuous Replication
|
|
Availability can be increased using
continuous replication of data across multiple disks on a single
server. This establishes a second copy of the production
database on the local server that is kept up-to-date
automatically. In the event of a disk failure or data
corruption, switching over to the copy database provides a less
costly and less complex recovery solution for the administrator.
|
|
Cluster Continuous Replication
|
|
Availability can be increased using
replication in an active/passive cluster. Data recorded on the
active server node is copied to the passive server node,
enabling a copy of not only server configuration and settings
but data as well. By not requiring shared storage, the active
node and passive node can be located in separate geographical
locations without the performance impact of synchronous
replication solutions. Automated failover to the passive server
node is transparent to the end user, dramatically reducing the
risk of data loss by relying on logs and queues and providing a
less costly and less complex recovery solution for the
administrator.
|
|
Fast and Fewer Backups
|
|
Backups can be run against the copy of the
production database on either the local server or passive server
node, decreasing the performance impact on production.
Continuous Replication also reduces the frequency of costly,
full disk or tape backups currently used for disaster recovery.
|
|
Database Portability
|
|
In the case of a complete server failure,
an empty dial tone mailbox database can be created on a new
server, enabling users to send and receive e-mail while recovery
is underway. A backup of the mailbox database can then be
recovered into the dial tone database even though the original
database in the backup was created on a different server.
|
Operational Efficiency
Exchange Server 2007 helps IT professionals administer, automate, and
deploy more efficiently. See what features are included with Exchange
Server 2007 for operational efficiency in the table below.
Administration and Automation
|
Exchange Management Console
|
|
Improves the graphical user interface for
management. Management actions are easily discovered through the
action pane, and the navigation tree is simplified to three
levels deep. Exchange management and troubleshooting tools are
integrated in the toolbox. The Exchange Management Console is
built upon the Exchange Management Shell; actions taken in the
Console are also available, and visible, through the command
line shell.
|
|
Exchange Management Shell
|
|
The Exchange Management Shell, based on
Microsoft Windows PowerShell, is a highly extensible and
flexible management environment that complements the graphical
interface available through the Exchange Management Console. It
enables rapid management through a scriptable command line for
automation, batching, and reporting and integrates with Active
Directory. To help administrators quickly learn the syntax of
the Exchange Management Shell and build custom scripts, wizards
in the graphical Exchange Management Console display the command
line syntax for each action the administrator has specified via
the wizard. This text can be cut and pasted directly into the
Exchange Management Shell or into a script file.
|
|
Extended Integration with Active Directory
|
|
Use of Active Directory sites helps
automate new server discovery and configuration within the
organization. The topology of an Exchange Server 2007
environment is defined and managed through Active Directory,
alongside other servers in the infrastructure.
|
|
Exchange Management Pack for Microsoft
Operations Manager
|
|
Manual configuration for synthetic
transactions has been dramatically reduced or eliminated. All
synthetic transactions are now accessible from the Exchange
Management Shell. Rules directly align with Exchange Server 2007
server roles. New reports are introduced for Exchange
ActiveSync, unified messaging service availability, message
hygiene features, and server performance. Exchange Best
Practices Analyzer (ExBPA) integration features are also
included.
|
|
Exchange Troubleshooting Tools
|
|
In addition to the deep integration of
Exchange Best Practices Analyzer, Exchange Server 2007 provides
several troubleshooting tools within the toolbox in the Exchange
Management Console. These tools are kept up-to-date with the
latest information and capabilities through integration with
Microsoft Update. Included in the toolbox are the Exchange Mail
Flow Troubleshooter, Exchange Database Troubleshooter, and the
Exchange Performance Troubleshooter. The Exchange Mail Flow
Troubleshooter can diagnose and help remediate inbound and
outbound e-mail failures. The Exchange Database Troubleshooter
isolates database mounting failures, is used to manage recovery
storage groups, and walks the administrator through dial tone
recovery. Finally, the Exchange Performance Troubleshooter
identifies the cause of Outlook or Exchange performance problems
and advises on remediation.
|
|
Flexible Permission Model
|
|
Permissions become more granular and
straightforward to manage in the Exchange Server 2007
environment. The permissions model enables a set of new,
predefined administrator “roles.”
|
|
Automatic Server Updates
|
|
Automates Exchange Server updating and
patching using either Microsoft Update on the Web, Windows
Update Server on-site, or Microsoft Systems Management Server,
soon to be released as System Center Configuration Manager.
|
Deployment
|
Server Roles
|
|
Exchange Server 2007 is a modular system
of five server roles–Edge Transport, Hub Transport, Mailbox,
Client Access, and Unified Messaging – that reduces the time
required for installation; minimizes manual, post-install
configuration by the administrator; and limits the surface area
available for attack to increase security. Administrators also
gain the flexibility to deploy only the features and services
necessary on a given server and manage accordingly. All server
roles, with the exception of Edge Transport, can be deployed on
a single server, and only the Hub Transport and Mailbox server
roles are required for Exchange Server 2007 installation.
|
|
Setup
|
|
A new setup process goes from installation
to configuration and reduces complexity by incorporating the
modular, server role architecture of Exchange Server 2007 into
the process. Microsoft Windows Installer technology provides
distinct installation packages and smart default settings.
Exchange Best Practices Analyzer (ExBPA) is integrated with a
setup process to perform prerequisite checking and identify
potential deployment errors. To ease deployments in large
environments, Exchange Management Shell scripts can be used to
automate server installation and provisioning.
|
|
Exchange Best Practices Analyzer
|
|
Embedded in the Exchange Server 2007 setup
process and available through the Exchange Management Console
toolbox, the Exchange Best Practices Analyzer can be used to
proactively examine the topology and individual servers for
configuration discrepancies that may lead to service outages and
reliability problems in the future. The Analyzer surfaces
warnings or error messages to the administrator and information
on how to address the warning or error. It is recommended that
the Exchange Best Practice Analyzer be run periodically against
an Exchange environment to ensure optimal configuration.
|
|
Autodiscover
|
|
Configuring Outlook 2007 to connect with
Exchange is easier than ever before. If logged on to the
network, Exchange Server 2007 automatically completes all inputs
required for the user to initiate the connection. Even for users
not logged on to the network, connecting Outlook 2007 to
Exchange Server 2007 using Outlook Anywhere (formerly known as
RPC over HTTP or RPC/HTTP) requires only the user name, e-mail
address, and password; no Exchange server name is required. In
the event of a mailbox move, migration or disaster, Autodiscover
eliminates the need for users to change their settings by
automatically detecting the new server and reconfiguring the
connection.
|
|
Single Migration Engine
|
|
Exchange Server 2007 provides a single,
comprehensive tool for administrators to perform intra or
inter-organizational migrations, minimizing migration
complexity.
|
Scalability and Performance
|
Native x64
|
|
As a native 64-bit application, Exchange
can access more memory, ensuring high performance and
reliability as mailbox sizes and the number of user accounts per
server increase.
|
|
Storage Optimization
|
|
With reduced input/output (I/O)
requirements (up to 75 percent reduction in I/O per second)
enabled by the larger memory caches available on x64 systems,
Exchange Server 2007 makes better use of existing storage
systems and also allows administrators to use low-cost options
like Direct Attached Storage, even in demanding, enterprise
environments.
|
|
Optimized Browser Access
|
|
Outlook Web Access (OWA) 2007 delivers
improved performance and decreased latency. Increased client
caching reduces server roundtrips, thereby reducing bandwidth
usage and providing an optimal user experience when accessing
over slow connections.
|
|
Simplified Routing and Optimized Bandwidth
|
|
Message routing is automatically
determined, and mail is delivered using the most direct route by
default. Administrators can also configure schedule and priority
to optimize bandwidth usage.
|
Extensibility and Programmability
|
Web Services Application Programming
Interface (API)
|
|
Developers now have a simple way to embed
information from the Exchange Server 2007 mailbox or calendar
within line-of-business or other custom applications. The
Exchange Web Services API provides a single, documented,
standards-based API to be called from any client, language, or
platform.
|
|
OWA Web Parts
|
|
Developers can easily embed Outlook Web
Access functionality into their custom portals and portal
applications using OWA Web Parts.
|
|
Free/Busy Web Service
|
|
The Free/Busy Web Service offers a
flexible, extensible way to access free/busy information in
Exchange Server 2007. Used by clients such as Outlook, Outlook
Web Access, and mobile devices based on Exchange ActiveSync, the
Free/Busy Web Service allows developers to embed free/busy
information in line-of-business or custom applications
|
|
.NET Integration
|
|
Commands or scripts used in the Exchange
Management Shell can be called from managed code such as C# or
VB.NET. This allows developers to build custom applications
which organizations may use to execute common management tasks
in the messaging environment.
|
Anywhere Access
Exchange Server 2007 offers features that allow you and your
employees anywhere access to e-mail, calendaring, and more. See what
features are included with Exchange Server 2007 for anywhere access in
the table below.
Calendaring
|
Calendar Attendant
|
|
The Calendar Attendant reduces scheduling
conflicts by limiting calendar items (request, declines,
accepts) in the inbox to the latest version. The Calendar
Attendant also marks meeting requests as tentative on recipient
calendars until users can act on the request and relies on the
Exchange Server 2007 free/busy Web service for always up-to-date
availability information.
|
|
Resource Booking Attendant
|
|
The Resource Booking Attendant enables
resources, including meeting rooms or other equipment, to be
automatically managed. Resources can auto-accept requests when
available or decline and provide details explaining the decline.
Administrators can set granular policies on resources, including
available hours or scheduling permissions.
|
|
Scheduling Assistant
|
|
The Scheduling Assistant helps users
efficiently schedule meetings by providing visual guidance on
the best and worst dates and times to meet based on meeting
invitees and required resources.
|
|
Schedulable Out of Office
|
|
Out of Office (OOF) messages can now be
scheduled to begin and end on specific dates and times, reducing
the likelihood of a user’s out of OOF not being set. A separate
out of office message can be sent to external recipients, a
capability the administrator can enable or disable. Out of
Office messages can also be set or unset from a mobile device.
|
Mobile Messaging
|
Search
|
|
Information can be quickly found from a
mobile device using the search capability of Exchange
ActiveSync. When executing a search from a mobile device, both
the local device store and the user’s entire Exchange mailbox
are queried. Results found through the over-the-air search of
the Exchange mailbox can be rapidly retrieved to the device.
This capability enables access to information sent or received
days, weeks, or even months before, regardless of the storage
limitations of the mobile device.
|
|
Direct Push
|
|
Mobile devices incorporating Exchange
ActiveSync maintain a secure connection with Exchange Server
2007, receiving new or updated e-mail, calendar, contacts, and
tasks as soon as they arrive on the server. This push method
optimizes bandwidth usage while keeping users up-to-date.
|
|
Rich Experience on a Breadth of Devices
|
|
Users can get a familiar experience on a
range of mobile devices without requiring the organization to
deploy expensive third-party software or services. The Exchange
Server 2007 ActiveSync protocol is licensed for use by Windows
Mobile, Nokia, Symbian, Motorola, Sony Ericsson, Palm, and
DataViz. Given the breadth of partners, device choice continues
to expand.
|
|
Device Security and Management
|
|
Administrators may choose to enforce
policies on devices used in their organizations including
requiring PINs of varying length and strength and enforcing a
device wipe of data and applications, should the device be lost
or stolen. These controls become granular with Exchange Server
2007, allowing per-user policies. Device usage can be tracked
and managed centrally within the Exchange Server environment.
|
|
LinkAccess
|
|
When a user receives a link to a Windows
SharePoint Services site or file share while using a mobile
device, Exchange Server 2007 uses LinkAccess to retrieve and
display the document, no VPN or tunnel required.
|
|
Calendaring and Out of Office
|
|
With Exchange Server 2007, users have many
new options when accessing their calendar from a mobile device
using Exchange ActiveSync. They can reply to a meeting
invitation with a message, forward the invitation to another
person, and view acceptance tracking for meeting attendees. Out
of Office messages can also be set from the mobile device.
|
Web-based Messaging
|
Outlook 2007 Experience
|
|
Outlook Web Access, an AJAX application since its first
release with Exchange Server 5.5, provides a rich, Outlook like
experience in a browser. New features in Outlook Web Access 2007
enable users to:
| • |
Schedule Out of Office messages
and send to internal and/or external recipients
|
| • |
Use the Scheduling Assistant to
efficiently book meetings
|
| • |
Access SharePoint documents
without a VPN or tunnel using LinkAccess
|
| • |
Use WebReady Document Viewing to
read attachments in HTML even if the application that
created the document is not installed locally
|
| • |
Access RSS subscriptions
|
| • |
View content in Managed E-mail
Folders
|
| • |
Retrieve voice mail or fax
messages through Unified Messaging integration
|
| • |
Search the Global Address List
|
|
|
Access Security
|
|
Outlook Web Access 2007 security is
improved. Two-factor authentication is supported, and
administrators can enforce HTML-only document viewing to avoid
information being left behind on public kiosks.
|
|
Self-Service Support
|
|
The Outlook Web Access 2007 Options menu
allows users to quickly and easily resolve many of the most
common sources of helpdesk calls on their own. OWA users can
request a Unified Messaging voice mail PIN reset, issue a remote
wipe request to their mobile device should it be lost of stolen,
and add senders to their safe or block list all within Outlook
Web Access.
|
|
Outlook Web Access Light
|
|
Outlook Web Access Light provides a rich
Outlook Web Access experience over slow connections and enables
many of the new features in Outlook Web Access 2007, including
schedulable Out of Office messages (internal and external),
Really Simple Syndication (RSS) subscriptions, and Managed
E-Mail Folder access.
|
|
Search
|
|
Exchange Server 2007 mailboxes are fully
indexed by default, allowing users to quickly search for
information from Outlook Web Access. Re-indexing is
significantly faster than Exchange Server 2003, and search spans
both content within the e-mail itself and data contained in
attachments.
|
|
Remote Document Access
|
LinkAccess
|
When a user receives a link to a Windows
SharePoint Services site or file share while working remotely
using Outlook Web Access, Exchange Server 2007 uses LinkAccess
to retrieve and display the document, no virtual private network
(VPN) or tunnel required.
|
|
Remote Document Access
|
WebReady Document Viewing
|
Outlook Web Access 2007 can transcode a
variety of document types – including Microsoft Word, Microsoft
Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint, and PDF files – from their native
format into HTML so that they can be viewed in a client browser
even if the application that created the document is not
installed on the client. This allows users to be productive from
almost any machine and keeps viewed documents safe, even on
kiosk machines, since HTML documents are purged by Outlook Web
Access at logoff or session timeout.
|
Unified Messaging
|
Voice Messaging System
|
|
Voice mail can now be stored in the
mailbox and accessed from a unified inbox in Outlook, Outlook
Web Access, on a mobile device, or from a standard telephone.
This unification improves employee productivity by simplifying
access to the most common types of communications. It also
dramatically reduces cost by removing the need for a standalone
voice mail system and by taking advantage of any existing
investments in Active Directory. Exchange Server 2007 Unified
Messaging can be connected with a legacy private branch exchange
(PBX) infrastructure through an IP gateway, or can be directly
connected with certain IP PBX installations.
|
|
Fax Messaging System
|
|
Faxes can now be stored in the mailbox and
accessed from the user’s unified inbox in Outlook, Outlook Web
Access, or their mobile device. Unified Messaging centralizes
the management of inbound fax services within the Exchange
infrastructure.
|
|
Speech-Enabled Automated Attendant
|
|
The Attendant answers calls using an
automated operator, with customizable menus (e.g. “press 1 for
sales”), and global address list directory lookups (e.g. “who
would you like to contact?”). Callers can interact with the
Automated Attendant through touch tone menus or their voice
using speech recognition.

Using Outlook Web Access, users can

Outlook Voice Access
|
|
Users can access their Exchange mailbox
using a standard telephone, available anywhere. Through touch
tone or speech-enabled menus, they can hear and act on their
calendar, listen to e-mail messages (translated from text to
speech), listen to voice mail messages, call their contacts, or
call users listed in the directory.

|
Play on Phone
|
|
Exchange Unified Messaging allows users to
playback voice messages received in their Exchange inbox on a
designated phone. This feature is useful when a user is in a
public place and does not want to play the voice mail over their
computer speakers. Play on Phone routes the voice mail to a cell
phone, desk phone, or other number specified by the user.
