5 Document Purpose This document details your options for using the Oracle Connector for Outlook (OCFO) Before you proceed, OCFO 2003 must be properly installed. The settings that follow are either Required, Recommended, or Optional. Following the instructions for Required settings is necessary for OCFO to work properly. Following the instructions for Recommended settings enables the program to work better. Choosing what Optional settings you wish allows you to customize your work station according to personal preference. Quick Tips and Observations OCFO does not always behave the way other programs do. Here are some quick tips and observations to keep in mind when working with OCFO. 1) Messages randomly appear in the Drafts folder. This is caused by a setting in OCFO. The setting saves a copy of any message you are working on if it has not been sent in three minutes. These draft messages should disappear once the message is sent, but using the old OpenMail system causes these messages to hang around in the Drafts folder. To fix this problem in OCFO 2003, choose Tools > Options from the Menu Bar. Click the Preference tab and then the Options button. Click the Advanced Options button, and uncheck AutoSave Unsent every. 2) The time zone in the OCFO calendar may need to be reset. If this is reset, the time zone on your system clock will also change. To return it to the correct setting, click the system clock located in the lower-right corner of your screen and ensure that Day Light savings time is checked, as is shown below. a) Double-click the clock located in the lower right-hand corner of your system tray. b) Click the Time Zone tab on the Date and Time Properties dialog box. c) Make sure Automatically adjust clock for daylight saving changes is checked. d) Click Apply. Then click OK. 3) When you are creating a calendar entry in OCFO, the detail field may not save information entered. 1

6 4) In OCFO Calendar, refused entries do not display. This is the way OCFO works and cannot be changed. 5) When you are creating a Contact entry in OCFO, the notes field may not save the information you enter. Quota Currently, the M.I.T. s quota system works in the following ways: 1) Gives users 200 MB of space. 2) Displays a warning message when you reach 90% of your quota. 3) When you hit your allotted quota, incoming is queued on the server and not delivered to your inbox. can be sent, but it will not be stored in the Sent folder, because this affects the quota. 4) As you correct your quota situation, either by deleting or moving it to a local message store, mail delivery resumes.

You may want a different signature for each area of responsibility. One signature might be: Bryant C.

Grochow, Ph.D. Vice President for Information Services and Technology Massachusetts Institute of Technology Room Cambridge, MA Multiple signatures can also be used for s that have repetitive messages. When you are sending the same message quite often, you can create a signature with the message included so that you can quickly append it to any . In this case, you would set your name and work-related information as the default signature and insert a secondary signature with the repetitive message, such as: To complete the Infinite Mile Award nomination process for Bryant C.

Working with the Local Message Store There are two areas in which OCFO is stored. It can be stored on the server or on some local storage device. An example of a local storage device is a hard drive, a zip disk, or an Outlook data file. OCFO allows multiple Outlook data files, also known as local message stores. These files have extensions of.pst. An Outlook data file can be a valuable tool for organizing and managing your . For example, you can create a file for each year of you have: Local Mail 2002.pst, Local Mail 2003.pst, Local Mail 2004.pst. We recommend that you do not exceed 1.5GB in any single Outlook data file. You may have files larger than this, but Outlook performance will suffer as a result. We recommend that if you need additional storage, you use multiple files. For more information, access online Help and search Outlook data files. 19

27 Folders Oracle Connector stores most folder information on either the calendar server or the server. A separate set of these folders may also appear in the Outlook data file (*.pst) or personal folder, i.e. local mail. They are unique and distinct from the folders that reside in your account on the server. The folders stored in your local mail folder are only accessible from the workstation on which you placed them. The following are considered Outlook special folders. 1) Calendar stores meeting requests, appointments, and events (These items are also available in the Oracle Calendar thick client.) 2) Contacts stores address information and distribution lists 3) Deleted Items stores items that have been deleted from other folders 4) Drafts contains items that are not completed 5) Inbox stores all incoming 6) Junk stores Outlook marks as junk mail 7) Journal stores journal entries 8) Notes stores electronic notes 9) Outbox stores messages that are waiting to be sent 10) Sent Items stores sent mail 11) Tasks stores tasks Adding Folders 1) From the Menu Bar, choose File > New > Folder. 23

Server-side rules will be available once the Oracle servers are up. Rules fall into two general categories: notification rules and organization rules. Notification rules alert you in some way when you receive a particular message. For 30

35 example, you can create a rule that automatically changes the color of a message sent from your boss. Organization rules perform one or more actions on a message.
