First of all does this sound like the safest approach and if so can anyone provide the name of a good stable/secure reverse proxy product.
I currently use haproxy for these sorts of things. It has worked out just fine. For a more robust solution, I am preparing to move towards OpenBSD's relayd system which you may find interesting as well. Model it out in VMWare (or something similar) first if you can, just to get a feel for how the configs work and to make sure that it is right for you. I would still consider placing a dedicated OWA server in the DMZ behind the reverse proxy, as the proxy alone doesn't guarantee that OWA cannot be compromised (at least to my tiny brain).
