Microsoft Exchange Online (E-mail & Calendar)

Microsoft Exchange Online is a cloud-based messaging solution that delivers e-mail, calendar, contacts, and tasks from PCs, the web, and mobile devices. This service is hosted on Microsoft Exchange Online servers that are housed in Microsoft datacenters in Toronto and Quebec City (Microsoft Cloud) and are accessible to users on a wide range of devices from inside University's campus wired and wireless networks and over the Internet. The service is fully integrated with Entra ID.

All faculty, staff and students are required to use University e-mail account for all official University business/school related correspondence. See: Accessing UWindsor E-mail Account

In addition to personal mailboxes, Office 365 also offers shared mailboxes. If you need a new shared mailbox to be created, or need to add/remove people to/from an existing shared mailbox, please open a ticket.

Each mailbox has a built-in calendar that can be used to manage your University schedule.
