Outlook Public Folders

Exchange mailbox folders include Calendar, Contacts, Deleted Items, Drafts, Inbox, Junk E-mail, Journal, Notes, Outbox, Sent Items, and Tasks.

Each item in the folder list links to that folder or to a particular Microsoft Office Outlook Web Access function. Clicking Calendar, for example, will display your appointments and meetings, while clicking Sent Items will display all the messages you've sent.

Work with your Exchange folders

Your Exchange mailbox contains folders with specific functions for handling your e-mail messages. These folders include Deleted Items, Drafts, Inbox, Junk E-mail, Outbox, and Sent Items.

You can create additional folders to organize messages into different categories, such as "Urgent" or "Personal," or you can organize messages by a particular project. Outlook Web Access allows you to delete folders or move and copy existing folders to suit your needs.

To display the contents of a folder, click the folder. All the items in that folder are listed in the main Outlook Web Access display area.
