Accessing School Email From Home

This entry details how you can access your email from anywhere in the world, using Southbank Webmail.  Users who are used to working with a full-blown Microsoft Outlook mail client may find this article on Terminal Services access more relevant.

To start, visit the Southbank Intranet site (www.southbank.net). There is a link in the right-hand sidebar titled 'Webmail'. Click this link.

You will be prompted to put in your username and password. In most cases, the box that pops up will look like one of the boxes below:


Password challenge in IE7  Password challenge in Firefox


As you can see from the boxes above, your username will need to be passed as:

southbank\User Name

You will now have full access to Southbank Webmail and all of the features you would normally find in Microsoft Outlook, including Tasks, Calendars, Shared Calendars, etc.
