Q&A: How can I use Outlook Web Access 2010?

I got a question via email from a Mac user who wants to update to Outlook Web Access 2010:

I've despised using OWA on my mac, but have to for work. Your article got me excited, but when I followed the links and tried to download the public beta, I could only find an .exe file, I looked around, but can find it for mac.

Can you help me?

For you as an end user, you can't use OWA 2010 yet. OWA 2010 isn't something that you install. It's a part of Exchange 2010 (just as all of the earlier versions of OWA were part of Exchange), it comes as part of the package when your server is running Exchange 2010. Since Exchange 2010 has only just hit public beta, your Exchange admin isn't going to make it available to end users yet. At most, they're going to be downloading it now and testing it themselves with a very small number of users. The only thing that you can do is let your Exchange admin know that you want OWA 2010 as soon as possible.
