Can I access someone else's contacts @ home through the internet?

[Helpme27]

I am not connected to an exchange server, and I need to add names to someone
else's Outlook Contacts list. Is there a way to do this from home, or do I
have to be connected to her work server? Can she somehow make her contacts
accessible to me through the internet? Any help would be greatly
appreciated, because I haven't a clue. Thx.

Outlook version? Mail server type? Account type? How do you connect to
work from home right now? Does work ALLOW you to connect to their servers
from home right now?

I do not work with her, so I would be using my home pop account to try to
access her contacts list on her work server. That is why I am wondering if
it is possible to do. Th eversion of mircrosoft is 2003, I think.

I certainly hope her company would have better protections than to let an
outsider connect to their servers. In short, the answer should be a
resounding no but you can ask her to ask her tech support folks.

I was wondering about someone accessing another person's work email account.
I can't help but think that if they can, that's not a company I'd want to
deal with. Talk about a potential security issue.
