    I, for one, have had no luck getting my "Full Outlook Client" to pick up
    mail from and send mail via my seattleschools.org account. I've tried to set
    up a POP account which provides the mail server with my password
    automaticaly (this works great inside the district by the way, unsecure
    though it may be- our secretary is forever getting stuck trying to log onto
    montana) and I have tried to set up an Microsoft Exchange Account.

    The Exchange Account seems to work the best in that it will pick up the mail
    - once. After that I get errors when sending and recieving. Also I have been
    unsuccessful at getting Outlook to leave the mail on the server. My computer
    at school is set up to only copy mail to the local machine. I have been
    unable to duplicate this at home.

    I hate to send "Official" mail using a personal address, but I have to admit
    that I am often to lazy when writing email to switch out of Outlook and turn
    on a browser and go to www...... and log on and wait for OWA.
    It would be great if I could handle all my mail with my email applicaton.

    Hi All,
    Wondered if others have had success setting up Outlook (or any other
    popmail client) to access their seattleschools.org account from home,
    i.e., outside the district...? I believe someone once mentioned this
    should work, setting up the mail server to mail.seattleschools.org, and
    using the same login/password as on OWA. Thanks - Mark
