Using Exchange 2000 SP2. Works fine with IE5.5 but if you use Netscape Navigator v6.2 (and other versions?) we get the following issues.

You can authenticate OK and see all of your Inbox however you do not get the Folders or Shortcuts buttons on the left hand frame so you're stuck with shortcuts.

Also if you click on New it creates the message in the same window rather than a new one as IE does.

Plus you get no buttons for To:, Cc: or Bcc: in your new message so you can't actually enter recipients. Strangly enough while there is no
graphical button for Attachments you can actually click the link and go to the attachments page.

Has anyone seen this - surely we're not the only ones with Linux users.

All help greatfully received.

Netscape isnt a rich client as far as Microsoft is concerned.

That could be your problem. Heres a technet document on Outlook web access.

I believe I read in one of the Outlook Web Access articles that there is a Unix version of Internet Explorer. Im not sure if its for a particular unix and if it will work on Linux since I dont have the document in front of me.

Hope this helps

You could also try the Opera Browser.

The PC version at least allows you to view OWA much as the old 3.0 IE browser did, but it allows you to read and send mail and work with the calendar.

They have a unix version at http://www.opera.com

Hope that helps.
