[gui-talk] Accessible way to read emails in Outlook web access

[Curtis Chong]

Ah, I see the problem. Yes, it is true that using the Outlook web interface,
one cannot find the Options link that enables you to switch to Outlook
Light. My preference (if possible) always is to use the real Outlook package
if available<smile>.

You might consider calling the Microsoft Disability Answer Desk at
800-936-5900 to get them to switch your interface to Outlook Light since
they can remote into your system and do it. Last week, I used them to fix a
problem I was having connecting Outlook to an Exchange server for the first
time. They were quite helpful.

Cordially,

Curtis Chong

Hi Curtis. 

I'm talking about outlook on the Internet  are you using the same or The
Outlook application which is part of Microsoft office package? 
Earlier I could find outlook light which was very accessible in comparison
to outlook standard but in one of my accounts outlook light is not 

Easily available  and the settings which may make Outlook light version
default for me is not accessible either
