I understand your issue (which I said yesterday). I understand why you don't
like it. *I* did not say it was a user problem. (Others did; *I* did not.)

What I don't understand is the overblown reaction, as though it were some big
honkin' hole that is going to blow up. If it hasn't blown up in Outlook, with
as many people who use it and as many unscrupulous people who target it, it
won't blow up in Entourage, with its small user base and the small Mac user
base.

My point remains: It's been expected behaviour in Outlook for years and has
not caused problems, let alone the major hysteria of "wait 'til this gets out
-- Microsoft will regret it," and so forth. It'd have blown up years ago if it
were as much of an issue as you seem to think. I have yet to see anyone
receive an invitation from a spammer, sneak or not. Unless you count the boss.
;)

And, ALL e-mails that show up in my inbox and ALL events that show up in my
calendar are unexpected, unless a coworker happens to mention them face to
face so that I expect them (which rarely happens). I'm not psychic, after all.
;) So, I'm contradicting myself -- I do get "sneak" invitations every day! ;)

The users knows, and can expect certain behavior when he either hits
'send/receive', or when he has his system automatically fetch new mail by
schedule (which is, by default, off).

Receiving an unexpected schedule in your calendar is certainly NOT expected
behavior
