Can't send outside firewall via Entourage 2008

B

I can get my mail from an Exchange 2007 server just fine outside of my
firewall using the OWA/WebDAV service. I can even search free/busy. I
know I can't get the LDAP server outside of the firewall, so I have
not tried.

My problem is that I can't send via my exchange account unless I am in
the firewall, and in that case the server name is different. My goal
is to be able to get/send mail from my mac at home without using a
VPN.

As an alternative, I can set up an imap account, create a smtp service
that works, and when I send a mail, change the "send from" to the imap
account and then the mail goes. But, ugh, to do this for every
email.... no way!

If there was a way to automatically tell Entourage 2008 that you want
to use an smtp server to send, that would be a fine alternative (I
think, I don't know what that does to sent mail).

So, bottom line, how can I figure out why this doesnt work, and what
are my alternatives?
