OWA Web address

[blubomber]

We are running OWA at my work for Exchange 5.5 SP4. I originaly had set it up as a link from our main website which goes to the default OWA web page. Here is an example of the link, http://216.82.x.x/exchange. The MX record on the ISP's servers is 216.82.x.x mail.mycompany.com.

I would like to be able to provide my users the ability to just type in mail.mycompay.com in their web explorer and have them get directly to the OWA server. Do i need to make adjustments to the OWA server that is using IIS 5.0? I am not too sure where to start.

Any help and guidance would be greatly appreciated.

your MX record has nothing to do with OWA
Your MX record should always point to your SMTP server.

You just need to setup an A record in your DNS to point to your webserver as usual

If you wish, you can put a redirect HTML page as the default page to route them to /exchange folder

I believe you could also setup host headers if you already have a website for mycompany.com so that mail.mycompany.com gets pointed to a different site on the same IIS box.
