OWA saves .docx and .xlsx file as .zip
We've had a lot of complaints about OWA saving Office 2007 files using the zip extension the last few weeks. It's an old issue and I'm surprised at the number of times it's come up recently. My best guess is that a lot of organizations with Exchange 2003 are only now upgrading to Office 2007.

Add an Image to Your Signature in OWA
OWA doesn't include the ability to insert images into signatures. This is because inserting an image from the local computer won't do much good when you access OWA from another computer and OWA doesn't have the capability to store it online for you. However, you can create a signature that contains an image, provided the

Outlook Web Access (OWA) allows any client with a compatible browser to access Exchange Server folders. The “premium” version of OWA in Exchange 2003 looks and acts much like the Outlook 2003 desktop client, although it does not offer support for the Journal folder. The “basic” version looks more like previous versions. You may want

Older versions of OWA don't provide a way to open other user's folders directly from the interface, as you can from Outlook’s File, Open, Other users folder menu, but this doesn't mean it’s not possible. You need to use a specially formatted URL that contains the other users email address and the folder you wish

Windows XP SP2 includes a number of security enhancements that can affect OWA. The most noticeable issue is caused by the pop-up blocker preventing some of OWAs windows from opening. This problem isn’t new, it’s has been a long standing problem with nearly every pop-up blocker available, but it’s going to affect a lot more

An administrator asked "We're using Exchange 2010. We can’t create signatures more than a couple of lines in OWA. Any longer and we get a message: “The text you typed is too long. Please shorten it and try to save it again.” I remember there was a Registry change for Exchange 2003 that would set

Print a Calendar using OWA 2007
OWA 2007 doesn't include a Print button. If you want to print from OWA, you'll need to use your browser's print functionality. Unfortunately, the results from the default settings leaves much to be desired as the dates and headers are out of alignment and even in landscape layout, the full calendar won't fit on the

A reader asks: "I upgraded to Vista and use OWA to access my email. I can read emails fine but when I try to reply to a message, the message body is not editable, it's blank. Do you know what's wrong and how to fix it?" After logging on, I try to send an email.
