®
The GroupWise product includes four clients for accessing your GroupWise mailbox:
Windows Client: A proven e-mail client for over a decade, the GroupWise Windows client is a
robust, full-featured access point from your Windows desktop to your GroupWise mailbox. It
offers a wide array of features to meet the needs of basic to advanced users.
Cross-Platform Client: First introduced in 2004, the relatively young GroupWise Cross-
Platform client offers the most vital GroupWise features to Linux* and Macintosh* users, with
additional GroupWise functionality being added with each new GroupWise release.
WebAccess Client: The WebAccess client provides access to your GroupWise mailbox in any
environment (Windows, Linux, and Macintosh) where a browser and an Internet connection are
available. In addition, using the WebAccess client, you can access your GroupWise mailbox
from wireless devices such as phones, Palm OS* devices, and Windows CE devices. Some
GroupWise functionality is limited because of the difficulty of implementing it in a browser-
based environment. However, some advanced functionality has been implemented using Java*
applets.
Outlook Connector: First introduced in GroupWise 7, the GroupWise Connector for Outlook*
allows you to access you to use Outlook to access your e-mail, calendar, and other
collaboration data that is stored in a GroupWise mailbox. With the GroupWise Connector for
Outlook, you can continue working in the Outlook environment you are accustomed to without
being trained on using GroupWise.
