The Exchange also in Site "A" is using its site's domain controller as its primary DNS and site "B" DC as its secondary DNS. 2- Exchange in site "B" is using its site DC as its primary DNS and site "A" DC as its secondary. The DNS is only one internal Active directory integrated zone replicated to all Domain Controllers in the forest. Clients in every Site are using their site's DC respectively as the primary DNS in their IP configurations.

It seems that this is not a problem from the Exchange END as when he is in his local Domain he is able to access his mail box. and he is also able to access it using OWA. This seems that he cannot access him mail box using MAPI. In this case Outlook Is not able to Communicate with the GC or the DNS Server Correctely. For this you might need to check your Replication Topology and ALso your DNS configurations.

Every location is actually an Active directory site with its own GC; the AD is a single domain model. Everything is working very fine except for one thing: when a user from site B for example is trying to configure his outlook and exchange account to access his mailbox from site A, he can't do that at all and the only way for him is OWA. What can be the reason for that?
