Have you considered Terminal Server or (better yet) Citrix? This works wonders for us
- full Outlook Exchange as well as all the other apps we run. We only have a dozen
or so users so far but my understanding is that Terminal by itself on one decent
server (dual Xeon 2.0GHz/1.5GB RAM) is fine
That's certainly an option, but a much more costly one IMHO.

What I did was that the F5 was using round robin DNS to load balance OWA

E2K OWA server and just assigned the new server the 2 IP's of the old

We have used Postini for a couple of months now. Looks good so far, we
are only using it for spam control on inbound mail.
I would highly recommend it, Tech support is good as well.

Definitely more costly but it really works well. The setup and configuration aspects
alone (client-side anyway) are much simpler and the performance is probably much
better than a straight VPN solution. I think if you look it at all the factors there
is a positive ROI.
