By default, WebAccess users can:
Spell check messages
Search LDAP directories

Access to these features is controlled by the WebAccess Application on the Web server. All users who log in through the Web server have the same feature access. You cannot configure individual user settings. However, if you have multiple Web servers, you can establish different settings for the Web servers by completing the following steps for each server’s WebAccess Application.
To configure the WebAccess feature settings:
In ConsoleOne, right-click the WebAccess Application object, then click
.Click
to display the Application Settings page.Configure the following settings:
Spell Check Items: Enable this option if you want users to be able to use the Novell® Speller to spell check an item’s text before sending the item. Disable this option to remove all Spell Check features from the user interface.

Open Attachments in Native Format: By default, the
option enables users to save message attachments to their local drives and then open them in their native applications. You can turn on this option to enable the option. The option enables users to open message attachments directly in their native applications without first saving the files to the local drive.This option requires that 1) each user’s Web browser knows the correct application or plug-in to associate with the attachment, according to its file extension or MIME type, and 2) the application or plug-in is available to the user. Otherwise, the user is prompted to save the file to disk or specify the application to open it.
This option and the option can both be enabled at the same time. Doing so gives users both the Open option and the View option, which means they have the choice of opening an attachment in its native application or viewing it as HTML.
