Outlook Email
We recently changed our e-mail system from Groupwise to Outlook. For a period of time, you will be able to use Groupwise to read old emails. However, Groupwise will neither send nor receive external e-mails (those out of the Spartanburg School District 6 system). Outlook will be functional for both internal and external e-mails. We will be migrating old emails from groupwise to outlook over the next week or so. Please minimize your use of Groupwise for the next couple of weeks as all Groupwise activity slows this migration process. For these reasons, we recommend that, as quickly as possible, you begin to utilize Outlook for both internal and external e-mails.These are the steps to log in to your new Outlook e-mail account:
1) Open Internet Explorer (or there is also a Outlook Web Access Icon on the application launcher on your desktop)2) Go to https://webmail.spart6.org/owa 3) You may receive a warning about the website's security certificate, if so, click on 'Continue to this Website'4) Log in with your Novell username and password that was sent to you5) Click "Sign In".6) You will be prompted to check your time zone. Although your time should already be set to Eastern, you must click "OK".7) ON YOUR FIRST LOGIN YOU MUST CHANGE YOUR PASSWORD 8) To change your password click "Options" below your name in the top right corner of your screen.9) Select "Change your password". 10) You must enter your initial password as your current password and then create a new password with a minimum length of six characters.11) Click "Save".12) Your new Outlook e-mail account is now ready to use.Note: Until further notice, you will continue to access your e-mail through Internet Explorer, utilizing steps 1-3 and entering the password that you selected.
