Get it in writing from them. As long as you do that, you have nothing to worry about.

So, I just got off the phone with a nice, perky young 'Softie. :-)
Here's the odd part ... I asked about the OWA coverage; she went and asked someone else. Result: if the off-site user is using a desktop system to access OWA (or Exchange, via a VPN), then YES, it needs a license. If they are using a laptop, NO, they do not need a license - since the Exchange CAL covers *both* a desktop *and* a laptop of a user.
The system mailboxes (Attendant, Free/Busy, etc) are covered under the server license, and so do not require CALs.
NAV does *not* require a CAL; the NAV for Exchange is supposed to be sold with a CAl for the user that NAV for Exchange creates.
Until somebody at MS contradicts this info, this is what I'll use to base my licensing purchases on.
