Besides, it isn't as simple as just opening some ports. Exchange does some dynamic port opening. So you have to edit the registry to force certain ports on the Exch server. Plus you have to open 135, which is not a safe move.

You really don't want to do what you're asking - it's a security nightmare to just let Outlook pass natively through the firewall. You'd be much happier if you created a virtual private networking connection. Go to http://www.microsoft.com and do a search for VPN. -Ben- Ben M.
