I don't understand why with a 2008 domain & Exchange you would use a=20 deprecated end user application like Outlook Express ?! If you are concerned about security , give a try to OWA, nothing will be=20 stored / cached on the user end, full SSL with https. For the server part, did you tried something like EFS or bitlocker, it's=20 possible to use such a feature on windows server. With such a solution, extracting the filesystem from the server would be=20 pointless because the FS or the files would be encrypted.
