They probably use the Cisco VPN client, and it is available for Mac OS X...

Caveats: NONE
At least within my installation, OWA is gone, turned off. The only access to
our local mailbox is via the local net from a machine with CAC-reader
attached, or via VPN. My work-around has been to use a Dell laptop as my
email machine.
Has anyone been successful in using VPN from a Mac into an Army system? I
know that there is VPN option available under network preferences (?) but
haven't a clue what to do or whether Apple's flavor of VPN would be
acceptable to our network managers.

I haven't figured this out for the typical Army installation, but here is
what I know:
If you have Outlook Web Access hosted on a Windows 2000 or 2003 server (I
believe you do), then Safari will be able to connect and authenticate using
Kerberos.
I've been testing this with ADmitMac for CAC. I can use a CAC to log in and
get Kerberos credentials, then use Safari to connect to OWA without getting
prompted for a password. This gives some limited capability. I don't see
any way to send signed or encrypted e-mail though.
I don't know about Tumbleweed's MailGate stuff (I assume that is what you
are talking about), but I think MailGate fits between the Internet and
e-mail servers. I don't think it gets involved with http connections, so it
should not affect using OWA.
