Not really an ara where i have a lot of knowlege or experience
but doesn't MSXchange use WebDAV as an access protocol?

'WebDAV - Next-Generation Collaborative Web Authoring' by Lisa
Dusseault talks a bit about this (there seems to be documentation
by Ms available online). According to this source there also must
exist 'Outlook --Web Access (OWA)', from what i understand that product
shipped  with Exchange 2000. Maybe you can ask the Admin to compensate
for his/her *abundant* stupidity by activating this beast :-)

 Feeling with you
