OWA on SBS 2003

[maya14]

I can access my OWA from inside the LAN but not from outside. What could be the cause for this?

You have the wrong external IP. You have ports blocked (you need 443 and 80 (You might get by without 80) open and pointing to your server.

Thanks. I was thinking the problem was with CA and SSL as i have not configured those.

I've recently gone through this myself.
If you still need help try:

If you simply run the Internet and Email connect wizard, you should have a basic cert to use to access OWA with. It may give you a cert error, but you can ignore it and access the website, unless one of the things LWcomputing mentioned is also amiss.

The easiest thing to do to get rid of the cert error and make your Exchange ActiveSync for PDAs work properly as well is to pick up a $20 SSL cert from GoDaddy for your server.
