How to Use GroupWise from Home

Here is the procedure for accessing your GroupWise email from home.

You need to have set a GroupWise password from a computer on the network. In GroupWise, click on Tools -> Options ->

Click on Security -> Password.

Enter a password and confirm it. GroupWise passwords are case-sensitive! If you use capital letters the first time, it will remember that.

Click on "OK".

Open a browser and go to the GSD website. Click on "Employees" and then "GroupWise WebAccess."

Enter your network name and the password you set previously. Choose your connection speed. Click on "Login".

This is what the WebAccess interface looks like:

When you have finished using GroupWise, click the Exit icon. This will properly close your account and help prevent possible corruption. This will also prevent anyone who may use the browser after you from accessing your account.
