I think Exchange is OK, but don't I have to somehow tell Outlook how to connect? From the somewhat cryptic things he's telling me, I think his Outlook is trying to connect through regular RPC, just like he's on the LAN.

Exchange 2007 has a feature called autodiscover, which should pick up the Outlook Anywhere settings automatically, even from outside your network (as that is what it is designed for).

I've been googling and reading since I posted and I'm thinking Outlook Anywhere is going to be the best fit. I've checked the server and it looks like the consultant installed the protocols and enabled Outlook Anywhere. We already have a cert configured for OWA, so that's not a big problem. Now I just need a good, simple document on how to set up Outlook. More googling...

I'd suggest getting the PST local, importing from Outlook inside the firewall. Maybe IMAP is he doesn't want to share. Ports open on the firewall, but no special cer.

We're hosting a single email account for a loosely affiliated company on our E2007 server. The lone user is outside of our facilities and he's using OWA to get his mail. He has a Blackberry connecting using BIS. He has Office 2007 on his PC and would like to import his Blackberry contacts into Outlook. Apparently, he's set up his Outlook profile to connect to our server, but that's being blocked by the firewall and Outlook won't open. What's the easiest way to make this happen? Set up a local Outlook data file on his PC? Poke a hole in the firewall to allow him to connect? Somehow import through OWA or BIS?
