Getting Started with UWF Email and Calendar

Understanding email and calendar features will ensure your success when communicating with other UWF employees. Please be aware of the items below.

1. Microsoft Outlook
   Outlook is the official email and calendar program at UWF and is supported by the ITS Help Desk. The Macintosh equivalent of Outlook is Entourage. You may hear Outlook/Entourage referred to as “Exchange Mail/Calendar”. Online help for your Outlook calendar is available from the Calendaring Information Page.
   
   
2. ArgoMail
   In addition to your desktop email program, ArgoMail allows you to access your email and calendar from any computer with an Internet connection. ArgoMail is available from the upper right corner of Argus or from http://argomail.uwf.edu. ArgoMail tutorials are available to help you get started.
   
   
3. Changing Your Display Name
   By default your email display name is set to the first and last name on file with the university. If desired, you can change your display name to a preferred name.
   
   
4. Global Address List (GAL)
   When composing an email or proposing a meeting, the Global Address List allows you to view a complete list of UWF employee and student email addresses. The GAL also allows you to schedule meeting locations and resources.
