How do I change OWA access form IP/exchange to mydomain.com/exchange

I have a exchange server 2003 with IIS 6.0.  We have a static IP hosted by GoDaddy.  Right now my users can access their OWA by typing in IP/exchange.  I would like them to be able to access via mail.mydomain.com/exchange.  How can I do this?  Do I need to change records on GoDaddy's site to point to this address?  If so, how do I do this?  Is their any thing I need to do with IIS to redirect users access requests?

have you tried typing in mail.yourdomain.com/echange and seeing what what happens?

I think your certificate needs to be issue to mail.yourdomain.com - you can check by going onto the server - going to administrative tools - open IIS - go to web sites - right click default web site - go to properties - click on directory security - and view the certificate and see what it is issued to.

We currently do not use certificates.  We had just switched our spam filtering to Message labs.  before the switch, we could access OWA by entering mail.domain.com/exchange.   Now we can only access OWA by IP/exchange.
is it possible that mail.domain.com doesn't resolve to the new ip after the switch?
mail.domain.com is now probably pointing to message labs rather than your servers IP address.
Probably best to contact your isp and ask them to setup an A record for owa.yourdomain.com to point to the external IP address of your network.

good solution, however, it could go into more detail.
What more detail could I have provided?
The only thing I didn't give you was your own IP address!
