First recommendation: don't use exchange, it needs too many services open up
to be secure.
Second recommendation: if you have to use Exchange for political or other
reasons, use a VPN to connect remotely. If you want to be able to connect
from almost anywhere (especially behind remote firewalls that you can't
control), stay away from PPTP and IPSEC. Use something that can tunnel over
an application gateway protocol such as TELNET or SSL. And I DO NOT mean a
program that uses port 23 or 443 and uses some arbitrary protocol, that will
not work on application gateway firewalls.

Hello and Thank you for your input.
I have an MS Exchange Server. I know there has been mention in the past
about have some kind of Exchange relay server in the DMZ while your actual
E-mail server is in your protected LAN.
I am wanting to let mobile users check email.
Could someone refresh my memory and lead me in the right direction.
Thank you.
