WebMail is a free optional component which allows your staff to send and receive e-mail using Internet Explorer. This has many benefits, such as the ability for your staff to be able to access and respond to their e-mail from anywhere in the world. If your staff use IMAP to access their e-mail rather than downloading messages from WorkgroupMail using POP3, then WebMail can be used in conjunction with a desktop mail client. This makes it possible to use a mail client whilst in the office, but use WebMail when away from the office.

WebMail is installed onto the computer which runs WorkgroupMail. This computer must also run Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS). Once installed, a user can browse to the appropriate login page, enter their usual account details and gain access to their e-mail. Using WebMail, they will have access to all their IMAP folders, any public folders and they will also be able to create their own personal folders.

Additionally, they may compose new messages, reply to existing messages, lookup addresses in the shared address book, file and delete mail.
