It sounds like the former.
Anyhow, most ISP's are now blocking port 135. So the solution is VPN or OWA.

ok let me see if I read you right here..
you have your exchange server 55 open to the internet...SO a user can
directly access it using OL..with NO VPN or other..
just direct??? 
which means you have 135-139 open to the internet??? (amoung possible other
ports??)

AND

Now these users can't connect to the exchange server with their OL?

OR 
do you mean you are on some type of WAN, VPN ..etc????

I have some remote users who are unable to connect to Exchange via the
internet.  They can ping the Exchange server via hostname or IP address.
Existing users seem to be ok but new users can't seem to connect.  

Thanks for any ideas.
