RPC over 80

G'day list,

Just to grab some opinions from the list, we're trying to cut our usage of
VPNs down for a lot of our clients as password management seems to be an
issue for a lot of our users (shocker, eh?). So, a suggested alternative for
users that just need access to their Exchange accounts has been RPC over 80,
to allow them to use their full outlook clients instead of OWA.

Any advantages, disadvantages or known problems with this?

Thanks in advance!
