Re: Outlook RPC over HTTp deosn't work

You really should type a bit more in your answers. You're being hard to help.

is that the *exact* name you gave your certificate? If so, change it to mail.itoka.com (ditch the http://)

You must do this via the 'connect to the internet' wizard.

After you run the wizard, go to https://mail.itoka.com/exchange

gave for the certificate?

i.e. mail.servername.com

When you go to the OWA url, do you use the exact same name, as in
https://mail.servername.com/exchange ?
