Security with Entourage (2004, Mac OS X)

M

Is there any way to make Entourage secure? I want to prevent people
from being able to access my email (both one's I have downloaded, and
one's that are still on the server) and to prevent them from accessing
my user identity in the Microsoft User Data folder. I'd like to
password protect my account so that you would have to enter a password
to get into the account, and to do the same to the contents of the
identity folder. So far the only thing I've found is to set up
Entourage to require a password to download new mail - this is only
part of the solution - I need to protect what is already on my
computer. Is there a way to do this?

Not that I know of. However, you could just use Mac OS X's built-in
multi-user management tools in the Accounts tab of the System Preferences to
create separate user accounts, maybe one for yourself and one (or more) for
those who need to access your Mac.
