Entourage connecting to Tasks folders on Exchange 2007 Server

[RobertP]

Version: 2008
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: Intel
Email Client: Exchange

I've just gone to Entourage 2008 for connecting to an Exchange 2007 Server. While the Email and general Calendar folders are getting the goodies from the Exchange Server, I don't appear to be getting to the Tasks folder on my Exchange account.
These Exchange folders are populated because I was previously using Windows Outlook 2003, and still have a Windows instance of Outlook 2003 available.
Entourage only shows Tasks and a To-Do list "On My Computer", and not anything from a server account.
Is this a mis-setting of my account? Does Entourage not offer Tasks from the Exchange Server?

This will not be available until Entourage for Exchange Web Services is
released a little later this year. Entourage EWS is currently in beta.
No ETA on a release date yet.

Hope this helps!

Yeah - thanks very much. Looking forward to this enhancement. After a bit more picking around, I realized that this functionality was not really replicated between Outlook and Entourage. Appreciate your patience with a naive question.
