My boss absolutely hates the OWA anyway. We looked at renumbering the ports for the Exchange box but there were far too many to get involved with. Because of all the restrictions on their firewall we had put the Exchange server thing on hold for a couple months, until now. We really need the collaboration tools that Exchange needs but since we already have IMail up and running (which we've been using for a couple years) without problem we thought that maybe there's a way to use IMail to handle the email portion when at the client's and use Exchange for the collaboration internally. > > > Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html > to be removed from this list. > > An Archive of this list is available at: > http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ > Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html to be removed from this list.
