outlook auto discovery - a huge topic - for me sbs 2011 server

its a standard installation

a public cert is used like remote.mybrake.com

what will happen when outlook connects from outside , it is broken by default.

the answer to get a san cert,

or add SRV record to your public dns server

1. In your external DNS zone, remove any HOST (A) or CNAME records for the Autodiscover service.
2. Use the following parameters to create a new SRV record:

   Service: _autodiscover
   Protocol: _tcp
   Port Number: 443
   Host: mail.contoso.com
   

if you can't setup OOF out of office reply , one possible problem is auto discover not working ( very new to me , tehehe)
