Adding an Exchange Only Account to New Outlook

Introduction

There may be times when a department or individual needs to share their email account so that other individuals can assist in answering email sent to that account, scheduling events in the calendar, or accessing specific contacts saved in that account.

Email only account permissions are managed by IT.  If you find that you don't have permissions to an account, please request that access by emailing userhelp@uwyo.edu.
