Using the Microsoft Database daemon in Entourage 2008:

The daemon is also used to run the option in the the Database Utility to
"Verify Automatically in Background". If the daemon is turned off, "Verify
Automatically in Background" will not take place.

Spotlight will index any cache files the Entourage daemon has created even
if the daemon is not launched, but no new cache files will be created until
the daemon is launched again. If the Microsoft Sync daemon never launches,
there's no way for Entourage to sync data with Sync Services. The
preferences in Entourage for Sync Services basically control 1) if this
daemon app is launched and 2) where it should sync data to-from.

Starting with Entourage 2008, Office Notifications are now called Office
Reminders. It's not simply a name change. The Microsoft Database daemon no
longer quits Reminders in Entourage 2008.

Before 2008, the daemon owned telling the reminders app that there were
reminders. With 2008, the daemon only owns launching the reminders app and
the reminders app asks the daemon about what to show.
