I want to give my users a simpler to use OWA URL than https://red001.mail.microsoftonline.com !

You have a few options to accomplish this.

  1. Users can sign in to https://home.microsoftonline.com. This URL is simpler and has a link to both OWA and Sharepoint Online sites.

  2. The Sign In application presents a link to OWA when open. If Outlook is not installed, the Email and Calendaring link takes you to OWA. If Outlook is installed, clicking on the little arrow on the Email and Calendaring section unhides the link to OWA.

  3. Create your own webpage that redirects users to the OWA page.

    To create your own redirection site, you will need to create an HTML or ASP file on a web server you own. You can choose to place this at a URL of your selection - eg https://contoso.com/mail or https://mail.contoso.com. It is a nice touch to make your URL work if users type either https:// and https://. The OWA URL will use SSL either way.

    Depending on whether you are creating .html or a .asp/.aspx page...
    (Note : replace [REALOWAURL] with the correct OWA URL)

    If creating an HTML file, use this example content -
    <HTML>
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=[REALOWAURL]">
    <BODY>
    Loading OWA...
      </BODY>
    </HTML>

    If creating an ASP or ASPX file, use this example content -
    <HTML>
    <BODY>
    <%
    Response.Redirect "[REALOWAURL]"
    Response.End
    %>
    </BODY>
    </HTML>

  4. Lastly, if you use a DNS provider like GoDaddy, they might make this easy. GoDaddy allows creating subdomains of a domain that you own and configure forwarding to a different URL easily.
