Cross-Platform Client

The GroupWise cross-platform client brings the power of the GroupWise client to Linux and Macintosh desktops. USC is beta testing this new client, which includes the following features:
*Operating system independent client software
*Multi-user and multi-session enabled
*Address book import/export utility
*Integrated client software
*Easy integration with antivirus software
*Integrated lock-function for secure standby mode
*User defined startup attributes
*User-friendly interface to setup integrated preview applications
*Integrated log-file functionality
*Integrated SMS messaging
*Flexible calendar print-out
*Familiar, intuitive interface
*SSL and security for sending and receiving messages
The client requires Java Virtual Machine 1.4.1, and leverages Apple's Swing APIs for an "aqua" look and feel when run on Mac OS X.

Novell’s objective is to provide end-users with full feature parity regardless of their desktop operating system. USC’s participation in this beta will help Novell reach that goal and ensure a seamless cross-platform GroupWise experience.

Windows Operating System
The GroupWise Windows client is used by most Windows users in their offices at USC. However, did you know that you can use the same GroupWise Windows client at home? All you need is access to the Internet and the GW client software. For information on acquiring the GroupWise Windows client software or for more information, contact the UTS Help Desk at (803) 777-1800 or online at https://helpdesk.uts.sc.edu.

WebAccess
GroupWise WebAccess allows you to access your GroupWise account from anywhere you have Internet access. The USC WebAccess URL is http://web.gwm.sc.edu (Note: Some college/departments have a different URL for WebAccess.).

WebAccess allows you to perform many of the same functions you do with the desktop client, such as send and receive mail, view your calendar, accept and decline appointments, proxy to another account, etc. Viewing archived items or moving items to your archive folder is not available in WebAccess.
