Re: Blackberry contacts for remote user
look at https/RPC to allow recure, remote access to exchange. I am not up to speed on E2007, but can't emagine that they would take that feature out.

IIRC, RPC over HTTP will require certs for this lone user. I'd suggest getting the PST local, importing from Outlook inside the firewall. Maybe IMAP is he doesn't want to share.

RE: Blackberry contacts for remote user
Thanks for the help. 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...

RE: Blackberry contacts for remote user
If the server has been setup correctly, you don't need to do anything.

RE: Blackberry contacts for remote user
It will try to use RPC to begin with, then fail over. However it does depend on how the user tried to configure it. If they entered the information manually, or guessed at the information, then it may not work. You need to test whether autodiscover is working and also if Outlook Anywhere is functioning. Setup a test account and then use the Exchange Test Connectivity site from Microsoft: https://www.testexchangeconnectivity.com/ That will tell you if the two elements are working from outside your network or not.

RE: Blackberry contacts for remote user
I will bet you are on the right track and that if they had a quick consultant come in and setup Exchange they didn't spend any time on setting up the autodiscover service.
