LACCD Student E-Mail Getting Started Guide Outlook Live: Understanding your Inbox and Composing Emails The Outlook Live Web Application included in the Live@edu suite is very similar to the Desktop version of Outlook you may already be familiar with some additional productivity features. The inbox is organized in the traditional three pane view with folders on the left, emails in the middle and the reading pane on the right. Since the familiar toolbar ribbon is absent in the online version of Outlook most actions can be completed by right clicking on an email. Above the middle pane users can also search for emails, compose a new message, delete emails or change the view of their inbox. One new addition in the Outlook Web App is something called Conversation View which groups all emails of a similar subject into one thread, eliminating the need to switch back and forth between different folders to find an email! Outlook Calendar: Sharing and Creating Calendars Included in the Live@edu suite is the Outlook Calendar Application that allows students to keep their busy lives organized and share out their calendars with other students. Every student’s calendar by default will be set to private and each user can decide who they do and do not want to share their calendar with. They can also create secondary calendars to keep track of every facet of their lives from Classes to Sports Events and everything in between. Much like with the Desktop version of Outlook
