CRM Online with Azure ADFS Proxy for On-Premise Exchange?

Hi All,

We are planning to implement CRM Online soon, and we would like to make use of the Exchange server integration.
The problem we face is that we don't want to enable Basic Authentication to our On-Premise exchange server and allow that type of authentication from Outside.
(Per this article, Basic auth is required: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/mt622059.aspx)

We are wondering if there is any way to setup CRM Online's Exchange Server integration through an Azure ADFS/ADConnect type of proxy.

The goal is to have CRM Online authenticate against the Azure ADFS, and be able to impersonate users for the Exchange integration, while avoiding having to enable the Basic authentication access to our on-premise servers from outside.

I do have a ticket open with MS about this, but I'm not sure if they have a clear understanding of the issue at this point.

Thanks,
-Brandon
