Selecting the client software for Exchange has always been a challenge. Outlook Web Access (OWA) is a most attractive client for accessing Exchange since it requires virtually no deployment effort. Previous versions of OWA have carried a number of penalties, including lack of scalability, features and flexibility. This paper investigates the next generation of OWA, which is a standard component of Exchange 2000 Server.
This paper reviews the features available to different families of web browsers, the
interaction between Exchange 2000 and Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS), the internal OWA architecture, and how the Web Store and OWA can be used to build a custom web browser
environment for clients.
The paper concludes with a review of the role of OWA as a stateless client for Exchange 2000 and the implications this client provides to the future evolution for messaging clients.
