Saud,
        If you did not want to see a visible forward, you could do the 
following.

------------------ index.html -------------------

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">

<HTML>
<HEAD>
        <TITLE>Your Company Name Here</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<FRAMESET ROWS="*" COLS="*" FRAMESPACING="0" FRAMEBORDER="0">
        <FRAME SRC="email_forward.html" NAME="emailForward" ID="emailForward" 
SCROLLING="Auto" MARGINWIDTH="0" MARGINHEIGHT="0">
</FRAMESET>
</HTML>

------------------ email_forward.html ------------

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">

<HTML>
<HEAD>
        <META HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" 
CONTENT="0;URL=http://mail.getintegrated.com/exchange";>
</HEAD>

<BODY>
</BODY>
</HTML>

--------------- end ----------------------------

This would allow you to customize the title, and keep the users guessing where 
the pages are actually kept.

Please keep in mind, this WILL NOT prevent all users from knowing the OWA 
server, if they are smart enough, they will find out very easily what the 
server actually is.  Also keep in mind that you are now adding two extra 
loading processes at the beginning of the site, the loading process of the 
initial page defining the frame, and the frame page forwarding you to OWA.  
Although this is rather transparent, I want to make sure everyone understands 
what they are doing before they do it.

Also, you want to test everything thoroughly, although I am a network admin and 
work with Exchange, I am not a Microsoft Developer, and quite frankly, have not 
taken the time to see if another frame is named "emailForward" throughout OWA, 
however I doubt there is.

I think that about covers it, good luck.
