proxy settings and calendar schedule data

S

Steve

I am running Entourage X 10.1.4 (030702) on Mac OS X 10.3.2
Panther.

I am connected to our exchange server at work through the
ethernet port (no VPN). If I receive an email which
contains html, I must go to Network Settings in System
Preferences and turn on the http proxy in order to view the
email. If I do not turn on the proxy I do not see any html
in the received email.

With just a proxy for http and https (no proxies for any
other service), my email works fine. My calendar, however,
does not. I am unable to view people's free/busy
(scheduling) data. The error message says that "Scheduling
data could not be found" - "Check your Entourage Exchange
settings and try again."

I have found that if I do not enable the http and https
proxies explicitly but I enable the Automatic Proxy
Configuration and give a path to a .pac file, my calendar
information works. I am able to see other people's
scheduling data. However, I am no longer able to view html
in my email messages.

In Entourage Mail and News preferences I do not have any
proxies explicitly enabled (no proxy for web, mail, or
secure). These settings work for me if I turn on the http
and https proxy settings in Network settings.

Here is the quick summary.

Network Settings
1) automatic proxy configuration only
no http, https proxy enabled
-> calendar shows me other peoples scheduling data
-> not html in email

2) http, https proxy set in Network settings
-> no schedule information for other people
-> can see html in email

3) automatic proxy settings - on
http, https proxy - on
-> no schedule information for other people
-> can see html in email

Any ideas on how to configure my proxies so that I see html
in my email and so that my calendar still allows me to see
other people's scheduling data.
