Using the Calendar

Web-Based Email includes a calendar that allows you to plan, schedule, and view events and tasks within your email application. To access the calendar, click Calendar in the Web-Based Email toolbar.

Working With Events

The calendar displays your Day View and provides options allowing you to change views and add events to your calendar. In the calendar view list, click Day View, Week View or Month View to display your calendar for the selected date range. Click List View to display all events regardless of date.

The selected view and date range displays on the top of the screen alongside the monthly calendar. Click Previous or Next to display the earlier or later date range (i.e. the previous day, week or month). To add a new event, click Add New Event. The Add Event view is where you create an event. Once you add your event details in the Add Event view, click Save.

The Event view displays your calendar for the selected view towards the bottom of the screen. Click an event in this view to display the Edit Event view. The Edit Event view lets you see the details of the event and, if desired, change the event details.

Working With Tasks

In the calendar View page, click Tasks to go to the Task view. The Task view displays a list of all your tasks. The list can be adjusted to display all tasks or to display only those tasks not yet completed (incomplete). In the list, you can click a specific task entry to open the Edit Task page or click Add New Task to enter a new task.
