What is Web Messaging?

IMail Web Messaging (Web client) lets users send and receive mail using a web browser. Users can log on to IMail Web Messaging from a browser on any computer with a supported browser and manage e-mail without installing e-mail client software.

IMail Web Messaging directly accesses the server to manage mail, and no longer requires IMAP. After logging in, users can manage e-mail from the browser, organize e-mail into folders (mailboxes), maintain an address book (contacts) and auto-synchronize it with Microsoft Outlook contacts (if the WorkgroupShare Client has been installed), and set delivery rules for incoming mail.

When a user creates a mailbox in IMail Web Messaging, the mailbox is created on the mail server and mail folders and messages reside on the server.
