With OWA2000 over SSL, the entire session is encrypted. With Hotmail, ony authentication is encrypted (I believe).
AND you ought to read Martin Tuip's article on deploying IPSec to secure the front end to back end communication for OWA.

Having said all that, I have to do HTTP over SSL with OWA and a front-end/back-end topology anyway ... so I'll just get my coat :) Mylo -----Original Message----- From: William Lefkovics [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 19 March 2002 01:36 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Front-End/Back-End Topology - Ex2K Why? What's wrong with POP/IMAP? IMAP4 over SSL for example. Why would you rather give them Hotmail?
