Yes there is a web interface for the exchange server system.\ It's called OWA, outlook web access.
Problem is with a mac that firefox or safari don't get full access to the options / rules features of this owa interface for crazy reasons. IE has access to these features Although you can get access with the firefox or safari browsers if you are able to use a citrix client to access the system. Or at least we can where I work.

Can those couple thinkgs like mail rules and filters be set up that way? CB Bryan Smart wrote: Well, for those of us that use Exchange for information management, we'd sure like to be able to run a version of Outlook on the Mac. Mail and ICal can get to some of that info on an Exchange server, but not all of it. Right now, if you want to change a server-side e-mail filtering rule, for example, you must start Outlook in a virtual machine or under BootCamp to make that adjustment. I also don't think that Pages supports all of the formatting options of Word. That isn't so important when you're making your own files, but it matters when you're exchanging files with other people that are using Word. So, Office isn't essential, but many of us would appreciate it.

I'm still personally trying to justify the purchase of iWork. it doesn't seem like MS Office has more than iWork does. I never really liked Office because it always felt sluggish to me as opposed to iWork. I'm sure someone a lot smarter than me can tell me why.

I am going into purchase the software for a friend's child who needs it so she can work with Office for Windows which is the standard at her college. Surprising as I thought most schools used Macs for everything educational. Fortunately the college student is sighted so she won't have any issues. Again, thank you.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. Apparently, Microsoft will be releasing their latest version at some point this year, which is reportedly going to be VO accessible, but who knows.
