Resolution
Exchange 2000/2003 didn't have CAS servers but they had "Front End" servers. With "Front End" servers, internal clients connected with Outlook through MAPI directly to Mailbox servers (using MAPI over RPC). External clients used the "Front End" as more of a proxy that could handle RPC over HTTP (for Outlook Anywhere), HTTPS (for Outlook Web Access), POP/IMAP
Exchange 2010 introduces a new service (MSExchangeRPC) so that the CAS Role is "true" middle tier
