Anyway to put a link on web page that goes to a specific Microsoft Outlook Mailbox?

This would be an Outlook Group mailbox.

how'd you mean a group mailbox? as in from an exchange server?

This might help:


<a href="outlook: inbox">The inbox</a><br>
<a href="outlook: calendar">The calendar</a><br>
<a href="outlook: inbox/subfolder">Subfolder in inbox</a><br>
<a href="outlook: other inbox/subfolder">subfolder in "other inbox"</a><br>

you should be able to play around with combinations to get something to go to whereever you want.

I havent, however, worked out how to make it open in the existing outlook window: it seems to always create a new instance of it.

Thanks for the info.

I am trying to get an Outlook mailbox off our exchange server. This works:
<a href="outlook: inbox">The inbox</a><br>

I really need to access the inbox of this mailbox:
Mailbox - OurGroupName


I tried with no success:

<a href="outlook: OurGroupName - inbox">OurGroupName inbox</a><br>

and

<a href="outlook: OurGroupName/inbox">OurGroupName inbox</a><br>

and

<a href="outlook: mailbox/OurGroupName - inbox">OurGroupName inbox</a><br>
