Sharing your school calendar

Posted on October 5, 2011October 26, 2011 by primaryt

Woohoo, Since I got upgraded on PrimaryEmail I had access to this new calendar sharing thing. Currently I’m sharing my free/busy but you can share anything you want. It works really well!

To enable sharing your calendar:
Log in to your Primary Email or School Email account via the website.
Click Calendar
Click Share
Click Publish this calendar to the internet
Change your settings and then get the Link for viewing calendar in a Web browser

If you want to embed your calendar copy the Link for viewing calendar in a Web browser URL and embed it in an iframe, it will look something like this:

PrimaryEmail issues [Resolved]

Posted on September 22, 2011 by primaryt

We’re aware a few schools are having problems with inbound email on our School Email service. We have isolated the fault and we’re working to fix it. We aim to have it resolved by 3pm (15:00) UK time.

UPDATE: This is now resolved! Apologies to anyone affected!

School Email / Primary Email home page problems

Posted on May 16, 2011 by primaryt

We received a small volume of complaints today from users experiencing a “white screen” when attempting to access Web Mail.

This problem was due to users trying to access web mail using saves links or short cuts from other websites, to avoid this problem please navigate to http://www.primaryemail.co.uk directly. If you do create short cuts to School Email / Primary Email we advise that you manually add the URL and point it to http://www.primaryemail.co.uk

Choosing the right email solution for your school.

Posted on January 13, 2010 by primaryt

You may think that choosing an email solution for your school is straight forward, but over the recent years more and more companies have moved into the Email for schools market. This means you now have a selection of different vendors that can provide very different email solutions.

Let’s take a look at the different options and what they can offer your school.

Excluded from this comparison are “internal only” email systems as I fail to see how they offer anything more than the systems that offer both internal and external access with an option to turn off external access.. Also excluded are VLE “solutions” that “have” email because let’s face it, if I was comparing dishwashers I wouldn’t include fitted kitchens….

Part 2 coming next week.
