So far... here's what is working with exchange and here is what is not working

Email messages seem to sync up fine (which I must say is WONDERFUL
since I work on a laptop half the day and a tower the other half):

If I send a message from one machine, it shows up as sent mail on the
other machine. bravo.

If I receive a message on one machine, I receive it on the other.
bravo.

If I view a message on one machine, it shows up as viewed on the
other. bravo.

If I delete a message from my INBOX on one machine, it gets deleted on
the other. bravo.

*BUT* if I delete a message from my Sent Items folder on one machine,
it does *not* get deleted on the other. boo hiss. Is this a bug, or is
there any way to fix this.


Unfortunately, calendar and contacts are not syncing at all. In fact,
the calendar and contacts folders under my main exchange account
folder just look like email folders.

How is this supposed to work? Is there supposed to be a calendar and
contact folder inside my exchange account folder? How do I get
contacts into it?


I think like many people, I use a MAC even though my IT department
doesn't "support" it. Therefore, they aren't much help. Do I need to
enter the proper LDAP server for calendar and contact exchanging to
work? What is LDAP?


Any info would be greatly appreciated. I know this is new, but,
Microsoft doesn't typically release quick bug fixes, do they?

Hi Dave!

I'm going by an earlier post by Paul Berkowitz in a different thread. For
syncing calendar and contacts, WebDAV must be enabled on the server. Have
you checked this yet?

A lot of Entourage folks are new to Exchange and conversely a lot of
Exchange/Outlook folks will be new to Entourage. Your feedback is greatly
appreciated in these early stages of something new.

Hope this helps! bill

Can anyone from the Mac BU of MS list all the requirements that the
Exchange server (account) needs to fullfil and that might be different
from either Outlook 2001 or Exchange under Windows? I saw things like
IMAP, SMTP, WebDAV. We have a windows only environment with one mac
only, so most is differently sep up. My exchange admin is saying that
we do not use SMTP for example. I need to tell him what I need.

Ok, I fired up IIS Manager but cannot find anything specifically
referencing WebDAV (I know Microsoft has fiddled with the open
standard-based WebDAV, so they probably call it something else). Can
you give us a clue or a TechNet or MSDN article referenced the enabling
of this protocol? Thanks.

Please see the thread "Entourage 10.1.4 for Exchange - some answers" for

Please "Reply To Newsgroup" to reply to this message. Emails will be
ignored.

PLEASE always state which version of Entourage you are using - 2001 or X.
It's often impossible to answer your questions otherwise.
