Hi,

I setup Entourage 2004 to work with an Exchange Server just fine, however,
my tasks don't seem to get synced. They show up in Outlook on Windows, but
not in Entourage.

Any ideas?

Thanks

That's correct.

Correct again.

Lots. Nothing that can change the fact that your observations above are
correct, however. Notes don't sync to Exchange either.

Not every feature of your Exchange mailbox -- or Public Folders -- is
supported in Entourage yet. You've hit upon one of the kinds of objects that
isn't handled today.

Even when some kind of data is synchronized to Exchange, there are portions
of that data that may not be. For example, you can work with Exchange
calendar events and sync them to your account (or "mailbox"), but if you
apply categories to the events, those categories don't sync to Exchange. You
won't see them set in Outlook, and any you set in Outlook won't round-trip
back to Entourage. You also won't get distribution lists you create in
Outlook synchronized to Entourage's address book, or groups from Entourage
sent to your Exchange account -- but you do get your contact cards.

Entourage has made strides as an Exchange client, but there's room to grow.
