Check out Basejet at http://www.basejet.com/home/index.html
Basejet has a similar architecture to Blackberry, where there is an agent program on your corporate desktop, which syncs with Outlook (and others) and responds to the New Mail event. Then it sends a notification to the Basejet servers (nominal subscription required) who then contact your phone via SMS and tell it to initiate a sync. The sync process then contacts your desktop PC and starts transferring the mail.
I'm probably oversimplifying it, and I'm not a current user, although I tried it out for a bit. My problem is that I don't have a desktop PC at the office, I have a laptop, so I can't effectively run the agent on a LAN-connected workstation.
Otherwise your IT dept would have to implement Mobile Information Server, (which has already been phased out of Exchange Server 2003) which presents a WAP interface you can use from the built in WAP browser or Blazer. We had it for a bit, but found it to be too tedious.
Another option is to have your IT dept open up IMAP access to the Exchange server. Then there are a plethora of Palm-based email clients to choose from. Good luck!
