Entourage Syncronization ist slow

F

Florian

Hi @ all,

I`am a Newbie with Entourage on MAC. I have searched the Internet what i
must do to use a Exchange Server 2003 with Macintosh.

I have tested Entourage X that works with emails, calendar and so on. But
the Public Folders, especially the Calendar in the Public folders dosen`t
work.

So i have tested Entourage 2004 with the newest Patches and everything works
fine including the Public Folders and the Calendar.

But he Problem is that the Syncronisation with the Exchange Server from the
Public folders is very slow. At the first connect to the Public Calendar the
syncronisation takes several hours. The next time the user uses this Public
Calendar the syncronization takes again a very long time and the user doesn`t
know if he had the actual Appointments or not.

What can I do to speed up the syncronisation ???

Thanks for your help

If you put your commonly used public folders into the 'favourites' section,
these will remain fully synced at all times.

The general block of public folders are not locally cached and so have to be
downloaded each time you access them. The favourites are cached.
