Accessing Email account from home
This is a system that allows you to access your University email account from any computer in the world provided you have access to the Internet.
To log into Outlook Web Access, open a web browser (e.g. Internet Explorer) and type in the following web address:
https://webmail.uws.ac.uk/owa
You may get a security message saying that there is a problem with the website’s security certificate, select, continue to this website.
At the Outlook Web Access login page, enter the Domain (uws-staff\) and your user name (eg.23212123 or your email address firstname.surname@uws.ac.uk) and then your password. Then click on log on.

The first time you log in this way, you will have to have to select your vision experience and language etc. and apply before you see your emails.
