Q: How do I access the network file server using Outlook Web Access?

Log into the Outlook Web Access web-based interface (see above) using the Microsoft Internet Explorer browser, and follow these steps:

  1. Click on the Documents bar (lower left of the screen).
  2. Click on Open Location (top left of the screen).
  3. In the popup box, enter the path to the personal (M:) drive: \\meduser\yourusername$
  4. Click on Open to open this path.
  5. Click on Add to Favorites to save a bookmark to this path.
  6. Click on Open Location again.
  7. In the popup box, enter the path to the shared (N:) drive: \\medgroup\medgroup\
  8. Click on Open to open this path.
  9. Click on Add to Favorites to save a bookmark to this path.

You should now have two bookmarks under the Documents bar that will give you read only access to all of the files in your M: and N: drives. Please note that this only works with the full version of Outlook Web Access, which is available only when you are using the Microsoft Internet Explorer browser. The Documents bar is not available when using Outlook Web Access lite.
