From: Orland, Kathleen on 4 Jun 2010 13:03 You will have to ask your administrators how to do that. They usually have security in place which prevents just anyone accessing the network. They may have Outlook Anywhere, OWA, or other options if Exchange server is not used. They will be able to give you the information you need. Where I work, we offer OWA (Outlook Web Access, available over the internet) but you must use a keyfob with a changing digital number sequence to identify yourself and retrieve your mail. This does not include access to any personal folders, only the Exchange mailbox. -- Kathleen Orland "shelsome" <shelsome(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:C2489057-8D4F-49E5-BEAF-199ACA4020ED(a)microsoft.com... > I would like to work from home but I need to be able to access my company > email that uses outlook and read them from my home computer.

Per Kathleen's reply, you need to ask your work network admin about Outlook Anywhere (formerly called Outlook RPC over HTTP). This is a secure connection to your work email. It syncs up a copy of your work Outlook on your local PC. Alternatively, webmail is also available on MS Exchange Server (again, you'll need to ask the admin about availablitity). It's called Outlook Web Access (OWA). The webmail access to your work email is a sorta 'cut down' version of Outlook (ie that's what it looks like), and does not have all the functionality of Outlook itself. Typically, it's available at: http://<your work OWA address>/exchange -- Duncan.
