1. Where can I get my emails on-line?
You can get your emails by accessing the Gateway.

2. What is my quota on the Exchange Outlook Web Access 2010 account?
You have 5GB total which includes all folders you create. An email reminder will be sent before you are over quota to delete any emails you no longer need. A good place to look is in the deleted folder or the sent folder. If you do get over quota you will still receive emails but you will not be able to send any until you are under your quota.
To find your quota simply sit your mouse pointer over the first folder that has your name and a box will appear with your information. (example below)
