Flank Speed Startup Guide
JUNE 7, 2021
1. Teams with a calendar
2. Flank Speed email
These users have had their email migrat-
ed to Flank Speed (@us.navy.mil) and
therefore Teams and Outlook work in-sync
(scheduling in either application will
populate the other). Forwarding has been
set up for any new emails or invites sent
to your old email address to your Flank
Speed inbox. Outgoing messages will be
sent from your new @us.navy.mil account.
1. Teams with a calendar
2. No Flank Speed email
These users will not use Flank Speed
Outlook, but will continue accessing
email as they have in the past. Users
can schedule a meeting directly in
the Teams calendar or in their non-
Flank Speed Outlook, but the two
calendars will not operate in-sync
with one another.
1. Teams without a calendar
2. No Flank Speed email
These users will not use Flank Speed
Outlook, but will continue accessing
email as they have in the past. However,
the lack of a Teams calendar is a sign
that your email will be migrated in a
matter of weeks—this is a short-term
situation. Without a Teams calendar, us-
ers will have to schedule Teams meetings
in @navy.mil Outlook.
Email migration to Flank Speed will happen in waves throughout FY21. As this process is ongoing, there
are three varying user experiences within Flank Speed that will impact where you receive email and
how you schedule Teams meetings.
But which user experience can I expect? To determine, log in to Flank Speed and answer these two questions:
1. Do I have a Teams calendar? Is my Flank Speed Outlook enabled?

AN IMPORTANT NOTE ON COLLABORATION
For the time being, the only guaranteed user group that will be able to join Flank Speed Teams meetings
are users with Flank Speed accounts (~260,000 Navy ashore users). Additional guest access capabilities
are expected for imminent release, users will be notified as these become available.
For options on how to schedule Teams meetings, see pages 7 and 8.
