We are hosting some clients email from out Exchange server. They are on our WAN but don't log into the domain. They get email via POP3. Have found that you can change passwords via Outlook Web Access. Is it easy to set it up so that the users onthe WAN that don't log in can manage thier passwords via OWA???? What I have found so far is that it might require SSL???

SSL isn't required, but it's certainly a good idea. Anytime you're exchanging passwords over the Internet encryption is a good thing.

Back to your question I think your answer is a big fat NO. I'm not positive but 90% sure you can NOT change passwords using Outlook Web Access.

You can, however, change passwords using utilities provided in the Windows NT Option Pack -- if you have IIS 4.0 installed on your server check out the pages in the IISADMPWD subweb of your Default Web Site, I think there's some ASP-based utilities in there you can use to change users' passwords.
