access internal resources using external fqdn

Hi there

I'm trying to access internal resources using our fully qualified domain
name on our SBS 2003 network. For example, I sometimes send mails (directly
from the SMTP server, bypassing Exchange) from the office, from home, and on
the road and I need to refer to the FQDN in the SMTP and POP server details
so that this setting works both out of the office and in the office. To give
another example, I need to be able to test HTTP uploads using the BITS
service using our FQDN, since our clients will obviously not have access to
the internal network name when making these uploads.

I've consulted several KB articles ... KB828054 ("You cannot open a Web page
that is on a Windows Small Business Server 2003-based server by using its
FQDN"), KB300679 ("Internal Web clients are unable to access an
externally-hosted Web site") and KB829039 ("Internal client computers cannot
connect to the externally accessible fully qualified domain name of the
Windows Small Business Server 2003-based server").

Am I totally off track?

Please help

Best regards
Loane
