Dear All,
We have Exchange 2007 ,we want to restrict access to mailbox from internet by choose group of users can access the published OWA from internet, and that should not effect the internal access to OWA ,In other words, I don't want to use the Active Directory to disable the OWA access becasue I still need all my internal users to do it internally
Any one can advice us?

Regards
Osaid

It would be more usual to use Outlook to access Exchange internally - if you're not using Outlook, you're missing out on some of the functionality that Exchange offers over a simple POP3 or IMAP server.

That said, if you want to persist down this route, you'd need some sort of rule on your TMG box (or equivalent) that defines who is and isn't allowed to access OWA via the external URL.

Thank you,but please note below more clarify about what we want:
"we have fortigate firewall and exchange server is behind it,previously we have installed Blackberry Enterprise server to enable blackberry smartphone to access to his mailbox via blackberry service,

Are there another intermediate software (as Blackberry exchange server) can access to exchange to enable specific (not all) user to access to his mailbox from internet,we do not want to enable direct access to exchange server>>

Many thanks
