If you select Configure Outlook Anywhere, and then select Connect to Exchange Mailbox using HTTP, you can configure the following options:

  • Use this URL to connect to the proxy server for Exchange - Server name URL for the Outlook Anywhere proxy server. Don't enter http:// or https:// as part of the name. The appropriate entry (http:// or https://) is included automatically in the box after you enter the name, based on the authentication settings you choose.

  • Connect using SSL only - Select this option to connect using Secured Sockets Layer only. If you want to support both server authentication and client authentication, select:

    • Mutually authenticate the session when connecting with SSL - If this is enabled, enter the Principal name for proxy server.

  • On fast network, connect using HTTP first, then connect using TCP/IP - On a fast network, connect using Outlook Anywhere (HTTP) first instead of the default LAN (TCP/IP).

  • On slow network, connect using HTTP first, then connect using TCP/IP - On a slow network, connect using Outlook Anywhere (HTTP) first instead of the default LAN (TCP/IP).

  • Use this authentication when connecting to the proxy server for Exchange - The default method is Password Authentication (NTLM).
