Microsoft Exchange is a system that provides a central location where a user can not only access e-mail but can utilize calendar information, tasks, notes, journals, and contacts. To access these features within an Exchange Server environment a user must use a program on their computers such as Microsoft Outlook. Alternatively, a web browser can be used to access Exchange by browsing to the Outlook Web Access (OWA) online application. This means access is available from anywhere through the World Wide Web.
Simply browse to http://mail.siu.edu and log in to your email with your SIU username and password.
