Speculation days are gone. There was an official announcement from MS, about a month ago, that Exchange Server functions (shared calendar, address book, etc.) will be provided in OS X by an update to Entourage X. Outlook is finished on the Mac, except in Classic. This Exchange update to Entourage X will be free, and will be ready "this summer", according to the MS announcement. (I'd read that as "by the end of the summer", if I were you.) -- Paul Berkowitz MVP Entourage Entourage FAQ Page: http://www.entourage.mvps.org/toc.html PLEASE always state which version of Entourage you are using - 2001 or X. It's often impossible to answer your questions otherwise. -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
