Did You Know?
Microsoft Exchange 2010
2010 proves to show us many improvements to look forward to especially with Microsoft Exchange. We’re recently rolled out our own upgrade to Exchange 2010 at EarthLink and have already enjoyed the new benefits it brings with it.

The most noticeable improvement is with Outlook Web App (OWA). Here are a few new features:
•Conversation view that allows group messaging of a single conversation.
•Multiple browser support. OWA now supports IE, Firefox, Safari and even Chrome.
•A personal favorite of our staff is improved calendar sharing. Now you can view multiple calendars side by side in OWA.
A new service to look out for from us later this year is shared Exchange hosting. In the upcoming months you will be able to receive all the benefits of Exchange in a cost effective, shared environment.

Looking to access Exchange with Outlook outside your corporate network or VPN? It’s now possible with Outlook Anywhere. Ask us how.
