I have Exchange 5.5 Installed and I need a software that will enable me to access my exchange server from the web to access my mail. the exchange server is behind a firewall so using other web based email retrievers will not work. I can have access to port 80 on my exchange server from the internet through the firewall so i will need to install a software that will make use of the default page on my exchange server. Any ideas???

You can use Outlook Web Access, I do not know if that was included with all versions of Exchange 5.5, but I do know it comes with Exchange 5.5 Enterprise. Put the CD in and run setup, you should see an option for installing Outlook Web Access. However, I would suggest you run it with SSL and 128 bit encryption, so you would want port 443 open on the firewall.

Clients that would be connecting to the exchange server will connect over very slow lines in West Africa so I need a lighter interface program. OWA seams to be heavy for this operation

I do not have Outlook Web Access, Is there an alternative lighter software that can do this??? Clients connecting to the exchange server DO NOT have high speed internet access, so I need a light interface software.

Th OWA interface is on the Install cd run setup and select OWA. make sure you have IIS 4 (found on the MS Option Pack CD)on the server before you install OWA, MMC 1.2 is recommended.
