OWA User Features

In this section, you take a quick look at the OWA user interface. When the user opens OWA, the default interface is very similar to Outlook 2007 (see Figure 24-12), in which the panes have a vertical format. The user who wants a more traditional view of Outlook can change this default presentation by clicking the Show/Hide Preview Pane button.

The default OWA interface is focused on the user’s Inbox.
