Exchange 2007 / Outlook 2007

Anyone have issues using OOF on outlook 2007. I know it uses the iis app autodiscover, but ours has stopped working. Would this be due to the exchange SSL cert? Someone has told me this needs to be renewed yearly, manaully? We dont have a onsite CA so the cert exchange must have is a self signed.

Do i just renew the self signed cert?

Or am i way off with my diagnosis. When turning on OOF it says "server unavailable"

Any advice would be great. I have had problems previously with the OOF as the ISA when blocking packets, but that is all resolved.

The self-signed certificate is only good for one year. The certificate cannot be renewed, so you must generate a new cert with the New-ExchangeCertificate cmdlet.

If it is not a problem with the certificate, you can narrow the problem down by performing additional tests:
