3.5.1. Personal Organizer & AXIGEN Outlook Connector

Having time management and mobility needs in mind a Personal Organizer module is available from both AXIGEN’s WebMail interface and the email client Outlook. The Personal Organizer comprises tools such as calendar, tasks, journal, notes and collaborative support.

Aiming to adapt to all requirements generated by a competitive business environment, the new version's permission granting structure enables users to delegate email sending tasks to their team members and view the free/busy status to avoid assigning events when a team member is already taking part in a different one.

The AXIGEN Outlook Connector enhances the communication of Microsoft's email client with the AXIGEN server, thus making the Personal Organizer available for Outlook users to take full advantage of all AXIGEN's features & capabilities.

AXIGEN Outlook Connector implements most Exchange-like features including server-side Search Folders (such as Unread messages or Large Messages) which enables users to easily locate messages based on various filters. The new application also allows new folders (including special folders) creation on the server directly from Outlook.

For a detailed usage description for the Personal Organizer in AXIGEN's WebMail Interface, please see the corresponding chapter of the online documentation.
