Exchange Server 2013 CU3 OWA and TMG logoff process.

Question

Hi folks,
I just wanted to quickly check if the intent behind Greg Taylor's deliberate choice of words in
this article are still current, or if we can expect to have a resolution in the SP1 timeframe?
Specifically, I'm referring to Greg's CU1 update early-ish in the article where he states:
"The release of Exchange 2013 RTM CU1 changed the way OWA logoff works, such that the TMG change recommended in this post no longer applies. At the current time there is no way to catch and force logoff at TMG when TMG is generating the form,
instead users should be educated to close their browser window (as the pop-up tells them when they click Sign Out from within OWA).".
Given the "current time" of his update was CU1, is there any update as to whether something more meaningful than the pop-up is going to be put in place? While it's more symbolic than anything else, it's off-putting to
the users to still see their e-mail panel after having chosen to "log off".
Cheers,
Lain

Hi,
Thanks for your update.
Generally, the official clarification can be released after the SP update’s release. We can keep an eye on the Exchange Teamblog to see if there are any new updates for your question.
