The issue is probably one of the port mapping that occurs between an Outlook client and an Exchange server being blocked by your firewall. Here is the info for Exchange 5.5 on how to resolve this: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;Q155831&; http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q194952 Here is the info for Exchange 2000: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;Q270836&; Remember that whatever ports that you set your services to, you will then need to open those ports on your firewall. And just because you do this, not anyone and their brother can connect to your Exchange server regardless of whether or not you have a VPN because they are still going to need to logon and validate their account on the network.
