Oracle Collaboration Suite 10g Web Access Client

E-mail with support for HTML editing
Personal and shared address books with corporate directory (Global Address Book) integration and support for shared contacts
TimeBar view of calendar appointments and reminders, with direct access to the Oracle Calendar Web Client for creating and editing meetings

Your personal preferences are stored on the server so you can access your mail wherever and whenever you want, through a familiar interface on the supported browser of your choice. Work with and manage your information using drag-and-drop functionality, cascading menus, context menus, and resizable panes.
