[wellylug] Apache as a proxy for Outpuke's web-interface

Something like squirrelmail basically acts as an IMAP client to exchange 
on behalf of the user. This works quite well, but needs IMAP to be 
enabled in Exchange settings. Obviously appropriate firewalling would be 
in place to prevent external users directly connecting to exchange.

I've used a variety of IMAP clients to connect to Exchange, and 
squirrelmail should be no different. There are also a variety of other 
web-based IMAP clients that you could use.

Hope that helps,
