After I searched a lot in the net about this topic I often found my
eMail in this list.

Now I have done my research and configuration to this topic and want to
give others a hint where to look. I wrote informations and
configurations about this topic in my blog (only in german)

http://blog.h4des.org/index.php?/archives/279-TMG-als-Proxy-Outlook-Anywhere-hardening.html

So feel free to use it and feel free to ask if something bothers you.

Regards

Andre Pawlowski
