What I do is this: Configuration screen --> email --> add new profile,
called it webmail --> Now I have a screen called automatic
accountconfiguration, I can put my name e-mail adress and password in here. I
don't do that, I check the box for "Serversettings or extra servertypes
configure manually" click next --> Now i can choose an E-mailservice, I
choose Microsoft Exchange and click next --> Here I enter the Exchange server
name and my username. Now I click more settings --> Now it takes a minute and
then is says "no connection available" I click ok and in the next screen i
click cancel --> In the next screen i choose the connection screen and ckeck
the box "connect through HTTP with Microsoft Exchange", Then I click on
proxy-settings of Exchange --> I enter the right URL, I check the box "Only
connect to proxyservers wich has a certificate with the next principal-name
in it" there I enter the same URL as before only with msstd: instead of
https:// ---> then I click ok --> next screen apply and ok --> Now I'm in the
settings of Microsoft exchange screen with the servername and my username -->
now I click check names --> The servername and my username are underlined
now. I click next and then complete. Now I choose "always connect with
profile webmail". My username and password on my laptop are identical to my
email username and password. So I should not get a logon screen.
When I start outlook I get the message: Can't open your standardfolders for
e-mail. You have to connect with Microsoft Exchange with your current profile
before you can synchronise with your file with offline folders.

Is that a self signed or an offical certificate? In other words is the CA of
that certificate a trusted publisher?
What happens when you use OWA in IE, does IE display a certicate
warning?

I doubt that this will work as your local account is not the domain account
which is owner of that mailbox.
What proxy authentication setting do you have?
Try "basic auth" for example.

We have an official certificate, when I use OWA in IE I don't get a
certificate warning. And my local account is the same as my email account
(domain account).
When I use Basic auth, there is a logon popup when I click on check names.
But then it doesn't accept my username and password.

I forgot to mention that I do this all the time with outlook 2003 and it
works perfectly.
