MsExchangeTeam explained three methods to stop unapproved devices from accessing Exchange data.

Many companies and users consider mobile access to Exchange data an essential feature. Exchange ActiveSync (EAS) is very popular as it allows this access and many devices have licensed and implemented EAS (including Windows Mobile). Some companies use remote servers to access Exchange data and push it out to their mobile clients that aren’t EAS enabled. Of course these mobile access options can be a little concerning when you think about the security implications. Evaluating these devices (and servers) to make sure they comply with data protection policies is a necessary step for a lot of companies that want to protect their messaging data. This post will details some of the options available to companies that want to limit access to a specific set of supported devices.

The first question we usually get is, “How do you stop unapproved devices and servers from accessing Exchange data?” In general, I hear people talk about three ways to block devices:

1. Use an ISAPI filter (Not recommended)
2. Set policies that only the devices you care about can implement (Better)
3. Block the devices at the firewall (Recommended!)

MSExchangeTeam blogged about the Rollup Update 4 that appeared for a short time in the Windows Update Site last week.

For a brief period of time on 9/9 (Tuesday), a pre-release version of Update Rollup 4 for Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 1 (KB952580) was inadvertently made available to Microsoft Update, the Microsoft Update Catalog, and WSUS servers for download. While we quickly identified and removed the update from Microsoft Update within a short period of time, some servers using these distribution methods might have detected, downloaded and/or installed this version of the update.

Glen (gsexdev.blogspot.com) demonstrated in his last blog entry how to create an OWA customized form to use Maps and StreetView, there are also pictures in his blog demonstrating the form.

For those brave souls who attended my MVP theatre talk on Friday here’s the OWA customization I demo’ed. The basics of creating custom forms are documented in the Exchange SDK . But putting this together can be a little tricky so let’s go though some of the basis’s step by step.

Firstly I wanted to create a custom form that would display a map of the contacts address information and also a Street-view of the same address information using Google’s new Streetview features that was recently released for Australia. For this I created some contact items with a Message class of IPM.Contact.Map.
