By using Outlook (Windows) or Entourage (Mac OS X), Exchange integrates your e-mail, calendar management, and other useful features. Exchange also features a built-in Global Address List (GAL) that shows everyone at the University of Michigan. You can use the GAL to send e-mail and calendar invitations.
ITS's other e-mail service only handles your e-mail. You must use another service — such as Meeting Maker — to manage your calendar. To search for U-M faculty and staff, you must access a third resource — the U-M Online Directory.
When you're away from campus, you can access most of Exchange's features in one location on the web using Outlook Web Access (OWA). The services mentioned in the second paragraph are also available on the web but must be accessed separately.
