Re: Entourage Problems
Any luck using a new profile in Entourage or trying to re-synch the database in Entourage...forget the exact terminology they use. Entourage just uses OWA so if that's working it should work, unless you are running the beta which uses EWS, but even then if you're not seeing errors it seems to me Entourage just needs a swift kick. I've seen many cases where that was necessary.

RE: Entourage Problems
Someone had PSS (Entourage support) on the phone when I got to the office so I worked it out with them pretty quickly. The fix was to remove and recreate the exchange virtual directory on the mailbox servers: Remove-OwaVirtualDirectory exchange (default web site) New-OwaVirtualDirectory exchange -OwaVersion Exchange2003or2000 -VirtualDirectoryType Mailboxes -WebSiteName Default Web Site Apparently the exchange VD can become corrupted, but with all our mailboxes on Exchange 2007, everything else was working except Entourage. -mb From: Alex Fontana [mailto:afontana...@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, May 26, 2009 10:31 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Re: Entourage Problems Any luck using a new profile in Entourage or trying to re-synch the database in Entourage...forget the exact terminology they use.
