Loss of formatting between Macs & PCs using Outlook & Entourage X

T

Terry Hill

I currently use Microsoft Outlook on my Mac ­ running OS X.2.8 ­ to access
my Exchange mail, calendars, etc. as most of our org. uses Outlook for PC.
Of course I have to run Outlook in OS 9 ­ the last remaining app. that
requires OS 9.

While I can probably live without the Calendar function working properly ­
all of my Exchange Calendar items look like emails, not like my Calendar,
nor can I sink them ­ the last remaining irritation is that I lose any
formatting that might be in an email that is sent from a PC.

In Outlook: 2001 for OS 9, it acts as an Exchange client ­ albeit that you
do not get all of the cap. The PCs get ­ but at least you can use the
Calendar & retain formatting between PCs & Mac. However, with Entourage X,
it seems like there is now way to retain the formatting between platforms ­
is this true?

I have the HTML options turned on in the Preferences, but does not seem to
make any difference ­ any help will be most welcome!

Thanks,

Terry
