I use Entourage in an Exchange environment, but there are simply limitations to what Entourage does. Remember that Exchange is really designed to be server-centric, where everything is stored on the server in an "IMAP-style" of operation but using proprietary protocols and formats. Yes, you can use Exchange as a "super OE", but you lose a lot of the functionality that makes Exchange a groupware-style app. On the other hand, Entourage is designed primarily to be a stand-alone tool, not requiring the use of a server to store its data. You can send e-mail, appointments, and address cards to other users *via standard E-mail formats* which some other apps are just starting to embrace. Yes, Entourage works in an Exchange environment, and handles things like appointment e-mails OK, but it is not a full-fledged Exchange client. -- Glenn L.
