Allow looping w/ Cisco PIX 506E

I have Outlook Web Access configured internally where users who are at home/traveling can check their email by going to mail.acme.com.  

I just recently implemented a Cisco PIX firewall and now internal users cannot access mail.acme.com i guess because the firewall doesn't allow looping?  Is there a way to allow looping so users who goto mail.acme.com internally can still see the website?

I know I can make DNS entries, but I believe altering the firewall would be the easiest solution.

Thanks!

Actually, adding local DNS entries would be the easiest. The PIX can do "dns doctoring" but if --and only if-- your internal users are using an external DNS server. If you have your own internal DNS server, then a single dns entry is far easier.
