Can't send in Entourage 2008

I can get my mail from an Exchange 2007 server just fine outside of my firewall using the OWA/WebDAV service. I can even search free/busy. I know I can't get the LDAP server outside of the firewall, so I have not tried.

My problem is that I can't send via my exchange account unless I am in the firewall, and in that case the server name is different. My goal is to be able to get/send mail from my mac at home without using a VPN.

As an alternative, I can set up an imap account, create a smtp service that works, and when I send a mail, change the "send from" to the imap account and then the mail goes. But, ugh, to do this for every email.... no way!

If there was a way to automatically tell Entourage 2008 that you want to use an smtp server to send, that would be a fine alternative (I think, I don't know what that does to sent mail).

So, bottom line, how can I figure out why this doesnt work, and what are my alternatives?

I'm not getting you. If you cannot receive mail outside the firewall except using OWA, then you cannot send mail from outside your firewall except using OWA. That is the purpose of OWA.
