Enabling Zoom Mail and Calendar
The Zoom Mail and Calendar Clients allow you to view and manage your emails, as well as schedule and manage your calendar events, directly from the Zoom desktop client, further centralizing all your meeting, phone, chat, whiteboard, email, and calendar needs in one application. Connect your existing Google or Microsoft 365 account (Exchange) to view and send emails or schedule calendar events through the Zoom client, or create a new email address through the Zoom Mail Service and manage that account’s emails and calendar.
