Merv,

My ISP is not hosting my email. We have another company hosting our website
and email. Initially, email will continue to be sent to the email host by
linking exchange to the Pop3 accounts.

For my users I want them to be able to access OWA, the company web and
remote workplace. So I thought that a pointer should be setup with the ISP
to point to my static ip.
