Web groupware enables you to access email and groupware data such as calendars, tasks, contacts and notes using a standard web browser.

It can be accessed on the interface of the Intra2net system using the "Groupware" menu. When accessed from the Internet without using "Remote Administration via HTTPS" (Menu " Usermanager > Groups : Administration rights"), it opens directly after login.
