Not sure what you mean by that. This is not part of the global address list
....& won't be. It *can* be used as an Address Book in Outlook, though, if
everyone adds it as such.

Open up TCP port 443/forward it to your server's LAN IP, in your
firewall/router. then use
https://mypublicIP/exchange or https://my.company.com/exchange if you've set
up the appropriate host / A record in your public DNS.

Well, I doubt you'd be using that - should be the full DNS name from the
outside.
