There goes Tom again, shooting off his uninformed mouth.  It's v. 2004 and
*all* of the patches have been applied, including the Exchange patch.  And,
as usual, you've missed the main point like the broad side of the barn:
Entourage doesn't have a true archiving feature like 2001 did.

You're preaching to the choir; I've told them this much many times over as
has the Mac consultant I use.  Talk to your fellow travelers.  They're the
ones who think they know what they're doing and insist on doing this.

Isn't that what a good IT manager is supposed to do in your book?  Whatever
the staff wants them to do?

Terrific! Another $$$$ hoop-jumping solution again for < a dozen people.

Or gosh, use PCs like the other 95% of the .org.  They don't have this
problem; their email works great.

Naaaaah.  That's crazy talk from the big, bad IT manager.
