Setup:
Our live CAS box (CAS2) is set up behind a load balancer and
mail.mydomain.org points back to CAS2. Outlook Anywhere is pointed to
mail.mydomain.org It has been working this way for a couple of weeks now. 
Related, our CAS servers have the SSL binding set to a wildcard
certificate.

Yesterday I flattened and built a new "old" CAS1 server, giving it the
name/IP of our original one. Our plan is to put it into an array, but
currently it's just hanging out there, supposedly idle. I
enabled/configured Outlook Anywhere to also respond to mail.mydomain.org.

Issue:
This morning I came to work (I typical leave my PC on overnight, logged
in, but locked) and I got a certificate error from Outlook stating that
the certificate for CAS.mydomain.org did not match the certificate it
presented - which is the wildcard cert. We had not seen this since the
first day of standing up the new CAS, so I am sure its related to me doing
something with CAS1

What's confusing to me is why would my Outlook even look for this CAS
server? Would it have anything to do with me enabling Outlook Anywhere on
it? Or is it simply due to the fact that it's a part of the Exchange
organization?

I was working off the assumption that if DNS wasn't pointing back to a CAS
server, then clients wouldn't go looking for it. I'm guessing there are
some AD-specific items that hook it in?
