How to Install Outlook on a Terminal Server

Terminal servers are used to allow serial devices to connect to the local area network, or LAN, thereby giving them the capability to transfer data between networks. Transport can be made via TCP/IP, TelNet, SSH or Ethernet. Microsoft Outlook is an email and personal document manager developed by Microsoft. It can be used to send and receive emails and instant messages, control spam and schedule tasks. Managing email through a terminal server with Outlook requires a few steps to set up.
