Outlook 2003 to OWA?

[stumpy]

Can Outlook 2003 synchronize with OWA? I only have OWA
access to my clients exchange server. I've done it with
Entourage, but Outlook is much less intuitive... or maybe
it cannot be done?

It is possible to run Outlook 2003 in cached mode, that hits the Exchange
2003 server over HTTP, which effectively does what you want, I think,
although the Server may have to open a port or two...

Try: http://www.microsoft.com/office/ork/2003/three/ch8/OutC07.htm

You can configure user accounts in Microsoft® Office Outlook® 2003 to
connect to Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 over the Internet without the need
to use virtual private network (VPN) connections. This feature - connecting
to an Exchange account by using Remote Procedure Call (RPC) over HTTP -
allows Outlook users to access their Exchange Server accounts from the
Internet when they are traveling or are working outside their organization's
firewall.

Hope this helps,
