Outlook Anywhere

The Outlook Anywhere feature for Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 lets Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 and Outlook 2003 clients securely connect to their servers running Exchange Server over the Internet by using RPC over HTTP, without requiring a Virtual Private Network (VPN).

Outlook Anywhere is a later evolution of MAPI. For many organizations, it is an effective replacement for MAPI connectivity in Outlook since it provides the same functionality more securely and uses network bandwidth more effectively.
