Any way to change my password logging on to the exchange server (from outside so going through POP3/SMTP) through a telnet connect either on port 25 or 110 as i can not see a way to do it through outlook.
Any help appriciated

Erm, no, that will not be possible.

POP3 makes a connection to the Exchange application and does not make an interactive logon with the Windows server. Similarly SMTP.

Outlook similarly does not make an interactive logon to the Windows server.

To change your password, you will need to use Windows security on the 3 fingered salute menu or use the Change Password option in OWA.
 
Thanks anyway, look like I will have to wait till Im back in the office then.
